Requii — Request editor with environments and nested variables 🔍 Expand
📁

Everything Is a File

Requests, folders, and environments are stored as plain files on disk. You can version them with Git, back them up however you like, or move a workspace to another machine by copying a folder.

🤖

Agent & AI Friendly

Because workspaces are just files on your file system, AI coding agents and automation scripts can read, create, and modify requests directly — no proprietary API or plugin layer needed. Point an agent at the workspace folder and it works.

🔑

Built-in Auth

OAuth2 (authorization code, client credentials, PKCE), Bearer tokens, and Basic auth are supported out of the box. Configure per environment — token acquisition and injection are handled for you.

Flexible Environments

Nested variables with cross-references and interpolation across URLs, headers, and bodies. Define a base environment and layer overrides for dev, staging, and production — switch with one click.

✏️

Smart Code Editor

Request bodies are edited in a full-featured code editor with syntax highlighting, auto-formatting, and completions for JSON, XML, and other formats — the same engine behind VS Code.

No Account Needed

Open the app and start working. No sign-up, no login, no cloud dependency. Your data stays on your machine — suitable for air-gapped and security-sensitive environments.

🤝

Easy to Share With Others

Export an entire workspace — or just a selection of requests, folders, and environments — as a single JSON file. Send it to a colleague via Slack, email, or commit it to your repo. They import it and have the same setup in seconds. You can also share the workspace folder directly since it's just files.
