Hoverfly Cloud uses {{handlebars syntax}} to provide template scripting with which you can build out a JSON response. Typically, this would involve relying on some data that arrives as part of the request, either as a JSON payload itself, or as part of the path, query parameter, or header.
Templating can be used to perform validation, logic, arithmetic and to generate synthetic data to be used in constructing the body of your response, amongst many other powerful capabilities.
This brief section will discuss the basics of using Hoverfly's templating to generate a JSON response.
