When testing APIs, software engineers often repeat identical values across multiple requests, but who wants to waste time typing the same values every time? Insomnia’s environment variables solve this problem by allowing you to define a value once as an environment variable and reference that value wherever it’s needed. Insomnia also enables you to override certain variables using sub-environments or folder environments.
We’re happy to announce the release of gRPC support for Insomnia, now available in the 2020.5 release. With gRPC support, developers can make requests to gRPC backend services just like they can today with REST / GraphQL services from Insomnia.
