Paw founder here. I'm very sorry to hear this. If you don't mind, I'd love to know more details on what's happening. The logs available in Paw menu > "Get Debug Info…" are very helpful. If you don't min

Yep, I've got exactly the same yesterday until Uber asked me to grant "Always" location tracking. Not only I dislike the forceful location grant but they had a bug that didn't prompt me for it until I rebooted the app tw

Xcode 8.1 does that (visible in the TouchBar simulator). They add a global key to control the debugger (Pause/Resume program execution, toggle breakpoints…) while you're in your app, and away from Xcode: https://cl.ly&#

I guess it's a matter of choice, but we see Paw as a visual tool that makes it easy to setup a request (or a set of requests) to iterate quickly when developing an API or discovering a new one. Because of that, we try to keep actions i

If you're trying to import Postman collections into Paw, that's easy https://paw.cloud/docs/migrate/postman (all requests, grouping, environment variables, etc. will be preserved). Once imported, you can

I cannot agree more on this :) The first time I saw Insomnia last year, I found it already very well designed. It had a smooth UX on most basic actions and, I have to say, a fun use of the ".rest" domain name! I'm the founder

All fixed! It was a nasty bug, and a terrible UX. A one-liner to fix, but hard to find :) Sorry about that! And thank you to bring that to us, aavotins! Bugfix version Paw 3.0.5 has just been released https://paw.cloud/updat

I'm with you on this, the wide use of the word "API" to designate Web/HTTP APIs is wrong. But we have to admit that if you talk with someone saying "we're build an API that does X", everyone will understan

While we ask to create an account at purchase time, it's never needed for trials. Also, to work with Paw for Teams and share projects, an account is required as it obviously needs an authentication scheme for access control… -Micha fro

Thanks for the nice feedback, and sorry for the trial window inconvenience. That's clearly a bug, we don't want to buzz users in any way except at app start time in the welcome window. Will look into this bug right now, and find a

Thanks for the feedback, John! As you're referring to dynamic values as integer values in JSON requests, it's clearly something we will fix. It was planned for Paw 3, but we had to drop features to keep a reasonable timeline. What

As ing33k mentioned, Paw isn't an automated testing tool (at least not yet), but rather an app where you can experiment with your or others APIs to check if things are working, and have a visual feedback/confirmation of what you&#

As the founder of Paw, I'm certainly biased, so I'll stick to the facts. Paw has "dynamic values" which lets you inline computed components in any field of your request: useful for pointing to values from other requests,

We have actually two ideas in this area. First, as you mentioned, assertion testing. We've recently published a workaround (as a joke, but it's actually working :D) https://blog.paw.cloud/posts/secret-path-to-

That's very true :) You can write custom extensions for Paw, and they can be then shared with the community. But anyway, there's already a HAR importer, you can install it here as an extension https://paw.cloud/ext

Well, Apple purposely killed Apple Events making them impossible to be sent from sandboxed apps. While I'm not a fan of JavaScript as a language, it has the advantage to be commonly known and I think if it gets more used for app script

Thanks for the mention! What makes Paw different is dynamic values which lets you access/parse data from previous responses and compute anything you want. It's a simple way to do visual programming for your API testing. Also today
