Httpie is my goto http cli for all systems. Pretty much PostMan (that a lot of ppl use for no reason) but without annoying UI and on a single line. Formats JSON and colors it right in the terminal as well. Has a super nice query, header and post body syntax. Works well with sessions and cookies.
- zimpenfish 9y ago> Pretty much PostMan (that a lot of ppl use for no reason) I can't see anywhere in the httpie docs about capturing variables from and/or running tests on the HTTP responses - it's an extremely powerful feature of Postman when you're debugging non-trivial HTTP flows.

If you think the unix way and use a tool that excels in that you'll find your path to success (e.g. jq). $ userId=$(http get https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts/1 | jq '.userId') $ http get "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/users/$userId" | jq '{name,email}' { "name": "Leanne Graham", "email": "Sincere@april.biz" }
