# Additional Configurations

> Customize your MocklyAPI endpoints with flexible configuration options

## Overview

MocklyAPI provides multiple configuration options to customize your mock endpoints and simulate real-world API behavior. These settings allow you to control response types, status codes, authentication, delays, and data randomization.

## Always Random Data

<Card title="Random Data Configuration" icon="shuffle">
  Generate fresh random data on every request.
</Card>

### Options

**Disabled (Default)**

* Returns the same mock data on every request
* Consistent, predictable responses
* Ideal for deterministic testing

**Enabled**

* Generates new random data for each request
* Different response on every call
* Useful for testing dynamic UI updates

<Info>
  Enabling this feature may increase API call latency, as new data is generated for each request.
</Info>

<Warning>
  This feature is only available for supported datasets that can be randomly generated. BYOD and some static datasets cannot be randomized.
