I'm the creator of Insomnia and I'd love to hear your feedback if you try it out! I'm still a novice to GraphQL, so I'd like to make sure that it accommodates all use cases.

I've been using Insomia for a while, and really, really like it (hence why I submitted this post here :D).

The GraphQL support looks good, and will try it out with our backend.

I think as long as it's good or better than GraphIQL, you've got an advantage.

Cool. Insomnia is quite good. I prefer it over Paw (for MacOS only) because it is cross platform and I only want to learn one tool that works on both Mac and Linux.

Thanks for all the hard work!

Hey simple question: mobile now... does this support sending auth headers per request?
Re:Introducing GraphQL Support for Insomnia by gschier on Thursday August 10, 2017 @01:18AM (#14976663)
Yep!

What's the difference between using this and using graphiql?
Re:Introducing GraphQL Support for Insomnia by gschier on Thursday August 10, 2017 @11:48AM (#14980857)
Lots, actually. Since Insomnia is a full-featured HTTP testing tool, you can use all other Insomnia features with GraphQL like setting custom headers, filtering responses with JSONPath, Nunjucks templating, etc.

Timely update as I am learning GraphQL with it and it is simpler now to define the request body.

Great work and keep it up.

Nice! That's exactly why I implemented it (I just learned it too for a side project)
