Group requests in folders#

Folders group requests and flows inside a collection. They nest, so you can shape the tree to match the API: a folder per resource, per feature, or per stage of a workflow. This page covers how to add a folder, fill it, and remove it.

Add a folder#

To add a folder at the top of a collection, open the three-dot menu on that collection and choose Add folder. To nest a folder inside another folder, open the menu on that folder and choose Add folder. A popover opens for the new folder. Enter a name and click Create. The folder appears under the parent you chose.

Put requests and flows in it#

You can put requests into a folder in two ways. From the Save Request popover, choose the folder in the Collection dropdown. The dropdown indents folders under their parent. From the folder's menu, choose Add request. This opens a new tab with a default GET request and adds the saved entry to the folder. See Saving a request.

Flows go into a folder when you save a flow and choose that folder as the target. The folder menu itself does not list an add-flow action.

Nest folders inside folders#

Folders can hold other folders, with no fixed depth limit. Deep nesting is hard to scan, so two or three levels read best. When a search matches something inside a folder, every folder above it expands so you can see the path. See Searching.

Rename or remove a folder#

The folder menu has Rename and Delete. Rename changes the label, and the items inside keep their names. Delete removes the folder and everything in it, after a confirmation. It also closes any tab open from inside it. There is no undo. See Managing items.
