Opening the Panel

The mock panel is reached from the left sidebar. It is not a modal and it is not hidden behind a menu — it has its own dedicated slot in the sidebar's icon rail, right next to Box, Flows, Load Tests, Projects, and History.

The Mocks Icon

In the narrow icon column on the very left of the sidebar there is an entry labelled Mocks. Clicking it switches the sidebar section to the mock server list. The title bar above the list changes to MOCKS and a small + button appears to the right of the title — that button is the entry point for creating a new mock server (covered in the next sub-section).

Two States of the Sidebar

Depending on whether you have any mock servers yet, the sidebar shows one of two states:

  • Empty state: if no mock servers exist, the list area shows a small dashed placeholder with the text "No mock servers" and the hint "Create one to start mocking". The only way forward from here is the + button in the title bar.
  • Populated state: once at least one mock server exists, the list area fills with server cards — one per mock server — each showing the server's name, port, endpoint count, and running indicator. Details of these cards are covered in the Server List Sidebar sub-section.

Opening a Server in the Editor

Clicking a server card in the list does two things at once. First, it marks that server as the active one in the sidebar — its card gains a subtle highlight. Second, it swaps the main workspace area on the right for the full mock server editor: the server header, the endpoint tabs, and the per-endpoint request/response editor.

To close the editor and return to your regular workspace, use the back arrow at the top-left of the mock header (see Server Header & Start/Stop). Closing the editor does not stop a running server — it only hides the editor. A server that is already running keeps answering requests on its port until you explicitly stop it.
