Map Local

Map Local lets you serve a local file as the response for a matching request. It is one of the fastest ways to unblock frontend, mobile, or QA work when the real backend response is not available yet.

​
Best use cases

  • mock a response while a backend endpoint is still in progress,
  • reproduce one specific payload repeatedly,
  • test error states or empty states,
  • work offline with a known response file,
  • validate UI against unusual payload shapes.
  1. Capture a real request.
  2. Right-click it and create a Map Local rule.
  3. Point the rule at a local file.
  4. Trigger the request again.
  5. Inspect the returned response in Rockxy and in the client.

​
Keep rules narrow

Map Local is most reliable when the match is specific. Start with:
  • one host,
  • one path,
  • one method,
  • and only widen it if the intended flow requires it.

​
What to watch for

  • The file content becomes the response body.
  • The client still needs to accept the overall proxy and HTTPS setup.
  • If the match is too broad, you may accidentally replace more traffic than intended.

Map Remote

Use Map Remote when you need a different server, not a local payload.

Modify Headers

Change metadata without replacing the whole response body.
