# Viewing Response Details

The Response tab displays the results of the executed API request. It allows you to verify the returned data and response details before adding the API to a Test Case. The tab includes two sections: 

* **Body**: Shows the main content of the API response in JSON and XML format.
* **Header**: Displays response headers such as status code, content type, and other metadata. 

To view and validate the API response, perform the following actions: 

1. On the **Element Repository** page, after sending an API request, select the **Response** tab. 
2. On the **Response** tab, you can validate an API response using the following tabs:
