Preferring "a couple of clicks" vs "run one command" seems to indicate so, otherwise I'm not sure why'd someone would prefer the former instead of the latter.
- Xenoamorphous 1y agoI have dozens of collections with hundreds of requests, most sending complex payloads, all perfectly organised hierarchically. I'd rather use a collapsible UI for that, if you prefer to have hundreds of scripts in folders that's fine too. Actually I don't even create those collections, we have OpenAPI/Swagger docs for all of our APIs and I just import them with a couple of clicks (which I'm sure there's a way to do with curl). For the odd requests, and sharing requests with others? I use curl, no problem. I actually think I know it pretty well and very rarely need to look up any docs for it.

No, I don't (what a shitty strawman), I create abstractions then, like any other project. Surely you don't have hundreds of completely original and bespoke requests? Previously I've handled thousands of requests by having a .csv to load from.
- Xenoamorphous 1y ago> Surely you don't have hundreds of completely original and bespoke requests? Absolutely I do. It’s not like a few hundred endpoints is out of the ordinary in any mid sized company. I can go an edit any of the requests with autoformatting, highlighting and whatnot. As I say, you can keep your csv and abstractions, not trying to convince you that you should switch from whatever works for you.
