You can test most of the API requests from the edge browser itself using the ‘Network console’. This functionality is available in the latest versions of the Edge browser. This can be used instead of the ‘Postman’ application in case it is not available or not working. For this follow these steps:
1. Open the ‘developer tools’ in the Edge browser. Use Ctrl+Shift+I
2. Check for the ‘Network Console’tab on ‘Activity Bar'(taskbar on the top in developer tools). If you are using the ‘Network Console’ for the first time, click the ‘Plus'(+) icon on the top right to view the ‘Add tool to Activity Bar’ menu and select ‘Network Console’.
3. Click on the ‘Create Request’ button.
4. Now you will get a UI similar to the Postman application. You can specify the HTTPS method, URL, Query values(Parameters), Headers, Auth values(authentication values), Body(request body), and Fetch mode(for specifying CORS, Credentials, Cache, and Redirect mode).
