Review Summary
ReqBin HTTP Client Chrome extension is praised for its convenience and usefulness in testing APIs directly from the browser. Users find it a handy alternative to tools like curl and appreciate its functionality for specific use cases. However, multiple reviews report users being blocked after a few requests due to Cloudflare security measures, with no clear way to contact support for resolution. Some users also experience errors when setting headers, impacting usability.
