Environments and Variables

Use environments to avoid hardcoding hosts, tokens, or tenant IDs.

Variable Syntax

{{variable_name}}

Example URL:

http://{{host}}:4444/api/users/{{user_id}}

Create and Use an Environment

1. Open Environments.
2. Create environment (for example, local or staging).
3. Add key/value rows.
4. Save and switch active environment.
5. Send requests using template variables with double-curly syntax.

Resolution Behavior

• Resolved variables show in green.
• Missing variables show in red.

Where Variables Work

URL

http://{{host}}:4444/api/users/{{user_id}}

Headers

Authorization: Bearer {{token}}
X-Tenant: {{tenant_id}}

JSON Body

{
  "email": "{{email}}",
  "role": "{{role}}"
}

Authorization Fields

Bearer {{token}}

Troubleshooting

• Red variable chip: key missing in active environment.
• Wrong value used: check current active environment in footer.
• URL failed after replacement: validate host/protocol and resolved path.
