Is there such thing as a “playground” for the discourse API where I can fill in information needed for an API endpoint and then run it in my browser ([similar to what swagger has](https://api.drivet.xyz/docs))? An example:
[https://cdn.riverside.rocks/a/secure-spaghetti-principle.mp4](https://cdn.riverside.rocks/a/secure-spaghetti-principle.mp4)
I’ve discovered an API key but I’m unsure of what permissions it has and to save time I would like to test it on a web GUI instead of creating a new curl command ever time I want to test a new endpoint.

You could try using a service like Postman for this: [API Client | Postman API Platform](https://www.postman.com/product/api-client/).
