EXACT Matcher

Use the exact matcher in Hoverfly Cloud to precisely match request bodies for API simulation and testing.

Unless you need to match the exact payload as a string, down to the spaces and line breaks – this should not be used.

When you choose EXACT matching, Hoverfly will check that the incoming Request Body matches exactly the string that you have set for the Matcher value. If you get one space or line break wrong it won't match.

This does not work well with JSON.
