Collections

Organize your API requests in collections and folders. Saola uses the same terminology as Postman: collections contain folders and requests.

Creating Collections

  • + New — Click the "+ New" button in the sidebar header.
  • Empty state — When you have no collections, click "Create collection" in the empty state.
  • Context menu — Right-click anywhere in the sidebar content and choose New Collection.

Enter a name when prompted. Collections appear at the top level of the sidebar.

Folders

Right-click a collection or folder and choose New Folder to create nested folders. Folders can contain other folders and requests.

Saving Requests

  • Save — If the current tab is linked to a request, press Cmd+S (Mac) or Ctrl+S (Windows/Linux) to save changes in place.
  • Save as — Use the Save as button to save the current request as a new request in a chosen collection or folder.

When a tab is not linked to any request, pressing Cmd+S opens the Save to collection modal. Choose the target collection or folder, optionally set a name, and save.
