HTTP Request Editor

The HTTP Request Editor is where you configure and send HTTP requests in Martini. When you open a request in the HTTP Client view, it opens here for editing.

Use the editor to set the HTTP method and URL, then click Send to dispatch the request and inspect the response.

The editor includes the following tabs:

• Info — Provide a name and description to document your request.
• Parameters — Define query and path parameters.
• Body — Set the request payload.
• Authentication — Configure authentication for protected endpoints.
• Cookies — Attach cookies to outgoing requests.
