Allow to import old request files about restclient HOT 6 CLOSED

One of the strongest features in the RESTClient was saving and loading saved calls. I literally have several hundred saved request.

a feature to skin the app took was in for 2.0 but not the useability of tool? really?

I'm not going to manually set the URL, request body and Method all the time.

RESTClient 2.0.0 also support save/load requests, you can save your request as a favorite request, you can directly load it from menu. It's much easier to use.

The problem is I forgot to implement a tool to migrate old saved requests, I'm working on it. I will finish it tomorrow and submit a new version to Mozilla by week-end.

Before the 2.0.1 is released please downgrade to version 1.3.5 to use your saved requests.

You have a great tool. I have to donate b/c this is worth it.

As a suggestion, can you implement Save Current Request and Manage Favorite Requests like Bookmarks? Having the ability to organize into folders is essential.

For example: I have DEV, TEST, PROD requests that are different URLs and have different security credentials on just one API provider. Also, I have Twillio, x.commerce, and other API providers. Having just a flat list will be combersome. In 1.3.5 I used the directories in the file system to organize.

@mgeiser That's a good idea, I will add a folder/label for favorite requests in 2.0.2

I imported 'ols requests' before prime time, I guess... How can I clean up the messy import now? Favorite Requests > Manage Favorite Requests does not open up anything, in order to delete the previous import...

Answering my own question: Export Favorite requests, edit JSON to remove noise, re-import edited JSON as favorite requests.
