unmarked5517yInsomnia >>>>
Although at least Postman now has or will have NTLM auth support. Finally -
Curl + some bash aliases is enough to replace postman imho
Edit: even easier to use than postman because you don't have to use your mouse to click here and there -
C0D4681467y@AlexDeLarge as a configurable alternative to postman, with on going development, it’s made life easier.
Plus it has decent dark themes so that’s a plus in my book. -
leanrob36647yYes, yes it is.
Insomnia is Canadian made in my home province on BC, so I won’t bash it, but...
By far the best API tool is Paw for the Mac.
I can hear the comments now “but these other ones are free!”
Yes they are, and you get what you pay for.

spacem18447yOne thing I found with both postman and insomnia is I would like to just have the 'workspace' saved in a folder of my source code git project.. but of course they want you to sign up for their team experience.
A gui is nice for a one time test but I feel if you are developing test cases it will be better just to have scripts for this.. -
fireeyes717yLet's not forget that Postman has really good automatic testing features which Insomnia does not have.
Postman is a bloated piece of garbage
