FAQ

Using the tools

What free tools are available on OnSubmit?

OnSubmit groups generators, validators, converters and calculators for development, PDFs, images, text, finance, test data and QA workflows.

How can I search for a tool quickly?

Use the catalog page to search by name, format, need, keyword or business entity. Try IBAN/BIC, fake RIB, JSON, PDF, UUID, Regex, VAT or SIRET.

What is the difference between a generator, validator, converter and calculator?

A generator creates synthetic data, a validator checks local rules, a converter transforms the input and a calculator applies a displayed formula and assumptions.

FAQ

Data and privacy

Are inputs sent to a server?

No for current catalog tools: text and files are processed in the browser and are not sent to the OnSubmit API. The contact form is a separate request.

Can I paste production secrets or tokens?

Avoid pasting real secrets into any public tool. For JWT, hashes, .env files and passwords, use test values or anonymized data.

Are generated RIB, IBAN, cards or identities real?

No. Fictitious data is for mockups, forms, fixtures, QA tests and demos. It should not represent a real person, company or bank account.

FAQ

Reliability and official sources

What is the difference between a valid format and a real value?

A valid format satisfies length, character and checksum rules. A real value must also be assigned, active or recorded by the relevant bank, registry or authority.

Do OnSubmit validators query official databases?

Unless explicitly stated, they perform local structural checks. VIES, INSEE, banks and other registries are still required to confirm existence or status.

Are financial calculator results exact?

They apply the displayed formulas, rates and assumptions. Rounding, fees, insurance, tax and contractual terms can change the final amount, so the result remains an estimate.

FAQ

Contact and suggestions

How can I suggest a new tool?

Use the contact page and describe the need, target users, formats to support, examples and related OnSubmit tools.

Can I report a bug or UX issue?

Yes. The contact page is for bugs, calculation errors, mobile issues, content improvements and useful links between tools.

Can a page or workflow be sponsored?

Yes. Sponsorship can apply to a tool page, category or workflow when it is clearly identified and useful to the audience.

Need a specific tool?
