You just write the requests. That's it. Not much of an interface or anything. It also supports creating requests from a cURL command (so in Chromium devtools you can copy the cURL request and then paste it in IntelliJ).

This is also what I use. Others mention insomnia, but it does not support testing responses (validating them) with a script. With the Http Client in IntelliJ you can do that, as well as with Postman. But with Postman you need to import/export everything and put it into you projects, so you can check it in with your source code. Using IntelliJ you don't need to do that anymore too. Having used Postman, Insomnia and the IntelliJ Http Client, the last one is the best out of them all.

That's pretty nice! I'm a Rider user, which is based on IntelliJ... Will need to check if Rider has this!
