Ask HN: Developers, do you use Postman for API testing?

I have used it for years, but they recently crippled it. it is unusable now.

SoapUI seem like it is too tied down to xml.

does anyone have suggestions?

How do you deal with oauth2 with curl?

Google for “curl oauth2” for lots of helpful explanations and examples.

It's not as straightforward as something like Insomnia because you have to write a script that will open a browser and pull the tokens from there.

That depends. If you can use the command line and write a short script that’s just copy/paste from StackOverflow, curl is very simple.

I switched to Insomnia a while ago because it's less bloated.
