JSONBin.io is a Simple JSON Storage service. Our API is crafted keeping simplicity and effeciency in mind. For more information, you can refer to our API Reference page.

JSONBin is best suited for Mocking Requests while working on Frontend frameworks like React, Angular, Vue etc. JSONBin also powers a lot of Mobile Applications to store Configs or user records for these apps.

Alternatively, you can use JSONBin as a simple backend service for one page Desktop, Web, PWA apps.

As of April 16, 2019, we have made it mandatory for all the users to Sign-up in-order to Create the bins, to ensure non registered users not abusing the service.

We do not fiddle around with the User Data. Public bins can be accessible by anyone having the Bin ID. For Private Bins, none can view or carry any actions on Private Records until the Secret Key is passed in the header.

Your data stays only on our server. We do not sell any of the User or User stored data to third-party. Also, your data cannot be accessed by anyone but you (if Private records).

We've rate limiting in place. This applies to Free & Paid users. Hitting too many requests in a few mins will result into blocked account temporarily. To unblock, you can reach us out via Contact page.

You can Read Private Bins by passing secret-key in the request header. You can find your Secret Key at API Keys page. Refer to READ API Reference for more information on Reading Public and Private records.

Creating Public bins without secret-key feature is now deprecated.

Public bins which are created by passing secret-key in the headers with private: false header can be deleted. Public bins created without secret-key in the header are not allowed to be deleted.

Though, you can raise a request to us and we will verify a few details before we Delete the record.

Note that JSONBin holds the rights to Delete the Public Bins if the verification details doesn't match.

By default, Version Control is enabled by default. You can turn off the Version Control by passing versioning: false in the header while sending a PUT request (Update Request).

Note that you cannot disable versioning on Public Records which are created without secret-key.

No, we do not Delete any data from the server unless user Deletes the data themselves or requests us to delete.

If a Bin is requested or updated too many times in a day, the Record will be blocked. We block such records to ensure such records doesn't result in unnecessary load. We do this because a lot of times, developers write faulty codes and our servers goes under heavy load. As of now, only Bins of Free users are blocked.
