## Feature Overview

- 🪂 Import data from Postman, Insomnia, OpenAPI, Swagger, or Curl.


- 📤 Send requests via REST, GraphQL, Server Sent Events (SSE), WebSockets, or gRPC.


- 🔐 Automatically authorize requests with OAuth 2.0, JWT tokens, Basic Auth, and more.


- 🔎 Filter response bodies using JSONPath or XPath queries.


- ⛓️ Chain together multiple requests to dynamically reference values.


- 📂 Organize requests into workspaces and nested folders.


- 🧮 Use environment variables to easily switch between Prod and Dev.


- 🏷️ Send dynamic values like UUIDs or timestamps using template tags.


- 🎨 Choose from many of the included themes, or make your own.


- 💽 Mirror workspace data to a directory for integration with Git or Dropbox.


- 📜 View response history for each request.


- 🔌 Create your own plugins for authentication, template tags, and more!


- 🛜 Configure a proxy to access firewall-blocked APIs
