Import and Export Data

For team collaboration, it is recommended to use Directory / Git Sync

Import Data

Yaak supports importing data from a number of formats:

OpenAPI 3.0, 3.1
Postman Collection v2, v2.1
Insomnia v4+
Swagger 2.0
Curl commands (new-line separated)

Data can be imported via the main settings menu.

Import and export commands in the main menu — Open Import Data from the main menu

Select a file or enter a URL, choose a new or existing workspace as the destination, then click Preview Import to review the changes.

Import dialog with file, URL, and destination options — Choose an import source and destination

Import cURL from Clipboard

It is also possible to quickly import cURL commands by pasting into the URL bar. Yaak will also present a helpful import button when it detects there is something to import from your clipboard.

Import Curl button in the app header — Import a Curl command detected on the clipboard

Export Data

Yaak allows exporting workspaces into a single JSON file, which can be backed up or shared. You can access the export feature from the global settings menu.

Select the workspaces you want to be included in the export, then you’ll be prompted to select a folder on your filesystem to save it.
