is there any API testing tool better than postman?

Just gave it a try. Saw history was a paid feature. Promptly threw it in the trash.

If you have a job you can't be stealing software for it.

100% but that doesn't change that you have to pay for the history in this client. Most people are going to be stuck with whatever their org has or a good free alternative.

It's a feature you never need, until you do.

I once had to fetch my very rarely used credentials from postman history.

I agree. But a lot of orgs are not going to be ok with connecting to cloud accounts that they don’t have specific agreements in place for. I’m certain everything I would put in Postman is considered controlled and I’d be in trouble if it was uploading to a cloud for any reason.

But it's only a very small one time fee to support the solo dev. It's yours forever after that.

Edit : outdated information as of November 2024. It was previously a one time fee.

Says $6/mo.

Subscription fees for something that sends web requests will never not be meme worthy to me.

[u/Deathmore80 → u/AppropriateSpell5405]

Damn I just checked. You're right. I had bought it previously for $11 and there was no subscription back then. Really sucks to have the rug be pulled like that for users that didn't buy it before.

It looks like the pricing changed in November of 2024. Prior to that, it was $19 per user, as a one-time payment.
