A free, open-source API for generating random user data. Like Lorem Ipsum, but for people.
Follow us @randomapiWant to create your own customized data generator for your application?
Check out our other service RandomAPI!
You can use AJAX to call the Random User Generator API and will receive a randomly generated user in return. If you are using jQuery, you can use the $.ajax() function in the code snippet below to get started.
$.ajax({ url: 'https://randomuser.me/api/', dataType: 'json', success: function(data) { console.log(data); } });
The application will provide you with a JSON, XML, CSV, or YAML object that you can parse and apply to your application.
You can specify the format you want the results in using the format parameter.
