Description

If I compose multiple requests, I would like to be able to predefine variables that I can then use in one or more of my requests.

For example, let's say I have requests that have a header that takes values 'X'. I would like to be able to compose my requests, and all set a header's value to this variable, for all those requests.

Why this feature/change is important?

Let's say I am testing an API which has some sort of Authorization value which permits me to call those endpoints. If I have one place where I can set a variable to a valid value for authorisation, it would save a lot of copying and pasting for all requests.

Is scripting the way to do this? There's currently no UI support for this?

It totally makes sense 👍 I'd introduce the Environment Variable as Postman does

It allows you to define variables, e.g. {{SERVER_NAME}}, {{TOKEN_API}}, ...

I will add it to the next releases 👍
