Requests Section

The Requestssection in Fiddler Everywhere enables you to organize and modify existing requests, which are listed in it. The section is part of a collapsible panel that you can hide/show to optimize your working space.

For more information about building and sending HTTP and HTTPS requests, refer to the article on the Composer tab.

When you save a request with the Composer tab, the request is added to a collection in the Requests list, which provides options for saving, modifying, executing, and sharing previously composed requests.

The Requests list is organized into collections. Each collection is a folder on the root level of the Requests list. A collection can contain saved requests and other subfolders. To reload or start working on the saved requests, expand a collection, and double-click a selected request. To rename or delete a collection, or make a new folder, use the context menu options.

Requests Menu

The Requests menu displays the following buttons:

• —Opens a new Composer tab.
• Shared Collections—Controls who has access to the shared collections.
• Create New Collection—Creates a new collection folder.

Collection Menu

The Collection menu displays options for managing your currently selected requests collection (folder).

• Create New Collection—Creates a new collection folder within the selected collection.
• Manage Shared Collection—Lists and manages users with access to the collection.
• Share Collection—Opens the sharing prompt and provide users with shared access rights.
• Delete—Deletes the selected collection completely. This action will also remove the collection for everyone with whom you've shared the collection.

Sharing a Collection

To share a collection, click the Share icon. Then, enter the email addresses of the users in the Share Collection window.

• You can share a collection only if you are the collection owner.
• You can share only collection folders on the root level of the Requests list. You cannot share individual sub-folders.
  

Deleting a Collection

To remove a selected collection or a specific request from the Requests list:

1. Click the delete icon of the folder.
2. Click Delete in the prompt window to confirm the deletion.

You can also delete a specific sub-folder or a particular request by using the delete option for the selected entry.
