Normally, in today's world developers test web APIs using Postman (or something similar).
Quote:
Postman is used by 6 million developers and more than 200,000 companies to access 130 million APIs every month.
FWIW, I work with web APIs every day and have not used curl in many years for testing an API. The dev world has moved on to very good tools for this in the last few years. I recommend you download, learn and usePostMan, or a free browser extension, to test API end points. It's a very good web API testing tool used by over 6 million web developers, including your truly.
Frankly, I have tried and used these tools, and in my experience using PostMan will have you a lot of development time.
