Env

Env manages named environment sets and the variables inside them.

What you do here

• switch between env sets
• create, rename, and delete env sets
• edit variable values, descriptions, and sensitivity
• import and export env data

Most common keys

Normal mode

• j / k: move between env sets
• e / Enter: open the variables table
• Ctrl+P: open the command palette

Variables table

• j / k: move through rows
• h / l: move between Variable, Value, Description, and Sensitive
• e / Enter: edit the selected field
• a: add a new variable
• d: delete the selected variable
• Esc: return to normal Env browsing

Field editing

• Enter: save
• Esc: cancel
• Tab: placeholder completion
• Ctrl+V: paste

Sensitive toggles directly. It does not open a text editor.

Common commands

• home
• env
• history
• new NAME
• rename NAME
• import PATH
• export PATH
• set KEY=value
• del
• del KEY
• edit

Quick examples

Create a new env set

Use new NAME.

Add or change a variable

Use either:

• set KEY=value
• interactive editing with e, then Enter

Import env data

Use import PATH.

Imported env data creates new env set(s). It does not merge into the currently selected env set.

Current import and export commands are key/value oriented:

• .env-style files map cleanly to one env set
• JSON env workspaces can be imported, but only key/value pairs are preserved
• Description and Sensitive metadata are part of app storage, not .env export files

Placeholder workflow

Env values are intended to be consumed by placeholders inside requests. Inline editors and the raw body editor support placeholder completion with Tab.

Use placeholders like {{API_URL}} or {{TOKEN}} in request fields.
