# Create Stateful Endpoint Set
> Assisted Creation of Stateful Mock APIs
The **Create Stateful Endpoint Set** feature in WireMock Cloud automates the creation of pre-configured stateful stubs. This allows for quick setup of RESTful API mocks with built-in request-response handling and state management across multiple HTTP methods.
Using this feature, WireMock Cloud automatically generates:
* **GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE** stubs for the specified resource
* A **default 404 response** for unmatched requests
This feature requires the **REST mock API template**. It is not available in the Unstructured / Blank mock API template.
## How It Works
You provide:
1. Create a new **REST mock API**
2. Click the **Stateful Set** button near the bottom of the stub list:
3. Supply a **POST endpoint page** (e.g., `/users`):
4. Provide a **sample request body** for the `POST`
e.g.:
```json theme={null}
{
"firstName": "Betty",
"lastName": "Boop",
"organization": "Finance"
}
```
5. Input a **correlated sample response body** for the given request body
e.g.:
```json theme={null}
{
"contactId": "4",
"firstName": "Betty",
"lastName": "Boop",
"organization": "Finance",
"created_utc": "2025-02-28T15:58:35Z"
}
```
6. At the bottom of the dialog, select which operations you'd like stubs to be created for:
7. Click the **Create Stateful set** button:
New stubs will be created that are automatically configured with stateful functionality.
* A **POST** stub that creates a new resource in the mock API's stateful memory
* A **GET** stub that lists all of the resources stored in the mock API's stateful memory
* A **GET** stub that retrieves a stored resource by its identifier
* A **PUT** stub that updates the stored data of a resource
* A **DELETE** stub that removes the stored resource
* A **DELETE** stub that removes all stored resources from the mock API's stateful memory
* A fallback **404 response** for unknown requests
You will want to further modify the stubs to better simulate the API's real-world stateful behavior.
