Workspaces
A workspace is a completely self-contained area with its own collections, environments, and history. Switching workspaces instantly brings up everything related to that project and hides everything else — like having separate desks for different projects.
When to Use Multiple Workspaces
- One workspace per client or project — keep all the requests, environments, and history for each project separate so they never mix.
- Separate personal and work APIs — your side-project requests stay out of your work sidebar.
- Isolate environments — if you want staging and production to feel completely separate rather than just different environments, use separate workspaces.
Creating a Workspace
- Click the workspace name at the top-left of the header bar.
- Select Manage Workspaces from the dropdown.
- Click + New Workspace.
- Type a name and press Enter.
The new workspace is immediately active. The sidebar is empty — ready for new collections and environments.
Switching Workspaces
Click the workspace name in the header and choose a different workspace from the dropdown. The entire sidebar — collections, history, environments — refreshes instantly to show that workspace's content.
Nothing in the other workspace is affected. Open tabs for the previous workspace close when you switch.
Renaming and Deleting Workspaces
Open Manage Workspaces (click the workspace name → Manage Workspaces):
- Rename — click the pencil icon next to any workspace name.
- Delete — click the trash icon. Deleting a workspace permanently removes all collections, environments, and history inside it. This cannot be undone.
The default workspace cannot be deleted.
Workspaces and Git Sync
Git Sync backs up all workspaces together. When you sync to a repository, collections and environments from every workspace are included. If you restore or pull on a new machine, all workspaces are restored.
See the Git Sync guide for setup instructions.
