Kreya 1.12 has been released! This new version comes with a lot of new features and some bug fixes. Starting with a new dialog for unimported operations that is visible after an import run. If you ever wanted to see how long a request takes on the wire and server side, this is now possible with the new Timing tab. And for REST, we now support server-sent events.

First of all, bring your own storage means you have the freedom to choose which storage provider you want to use to store your data. Unlike Postman, Insomnia and other API clients, Kreya gives you an easy way to bring your own storage. Kreya intentionally stores the project data in readable text files in the location of your choice, so you can easily read, edit, and share/sync the files with your favorite tools.

Kreya 1.11 is out now! This release prioritises enhancing the user experience. New users are now provided with a tour to familiarise themselves with Kreya on their first launch. The UI components, including buttons, have been improved to boost usability. The welcome screen has been completely redesigned and now includes quick links and tips. Moreover, quick action hints have been added when no tab is open. It is now possible to purge user variables, and an option to duplicate importers has been added. Additionally, this release includes numerous bug fixes.

Do you have a legacy API without any tests? Multiple APIs written in different languages? Or a Q&A team that wants to test all APIs with the same powerful tool? Then Kreya is the perfect solution for you!

Testing APIs with Kreya has its advantages. You can test your API both manually (e.g. during development) and in an automated way. Learn more about testing with Kreya in this article.

For a long time, REST was the one and only "standard" for building APIs. It kind of replaced SOAP, which was an ugly mess of "too much XML". But in recent years, new alternatives have emerged. In 2015, Facebook released GraphQL to the public, and in 2016 Google followed suit with the release of gRPC. In this article, we are going to focus on the latter and compare it with REST, which is still widely used.

Kreya 1.10 is out with some important changes, including a CLI and operation tabs. Many other features like a history of operations and path variables for REST operations were also implemented. And of course various bugs have been fixed in this version.

What a year! Almost two million operations were invoked with Kreya. To be exact, there were 1,992,648 tracked invoked operation events, of which 15,382 (0.77%) were REST operations. Many more numbers and insights can be found in this article.

The BloomRPC GitHub repo just got archived. BloomRPC was one of the earliest gRPC GUI clients, but has not received any updates in nearly two years.

Kreya 1.9 is here :partying_face:. This time with a small release. Just a few new features, but an important macOS bugfix.

It has been more than half a year since Kreya released a new version. Now Kreya 1.8 is here with many new features. Kreya now supports REST APIs, scripting and tests 🚀. We also introduced a Pro and Enterprise plan. Don't worry, almost all features are still available in the free version of Kreya.
