- (2023-02-15) Mohsen Babaei: The extension is ok but the logo is one of the most creative logos I've seen in a while.
- (2022-11-19) Ruslan Braun: Nice extension! It works well, but there is one problem, it follows redirects. How to disable redirect?
- (2022-09-26) Adrian Grosch: Simples porém muito útil
- (2022-09-14) K S: It's ok, however you have to set the content-type header manually. Should automatically set based on raw body content type.
- (2022-04-08) Christoph Thiede: Promising tool! I wish there was better support/display for redirects. E.g., the URL could be changed automatically for follow-up requests, or there could at least be any display of the redirect information.
- (2021-05-05) Jyothis J: One of the best..
- (2021-03-28) anas 'w: Amazing API testing experience, with it !
- (2021-03-03) Mister Squawk: This thing is excellent if you are trying to debug a POST method. As far as I can tell, the in-browser version of Postman cannot do this, or at least does it in such a way that unless your route also implements GET, it will fail. But RestMan -- a couple of clicks and I was in business. Wish I'd known about this a week ago.
- (2020-10-28) Carina Baumgärtner: Good but i really miss the possibility to send cookies, e.g. for Debugging purposes like xdebug always need a XDEBUG_SESSION cookie to trigger it. Five Stars as it is possible to send cookies
- (2020-10-22) Jose Antonio Mancebo: Es mucho mejor que el PostMan
- (2020-08-29) ̇ ̇ ̇ ̇ ̇ ̇ ̇ ̇ ̇ ̇: Simple , but it doesn't mean the amount of features is also simple , overall it works !
- (2020-08-21) Erwin Alquiza: no comment.
- (2020-02-06) Is Liz: una excelente herramientas grafica para desarrolladores, esto es muy util a la hora de probar request post u otros tipos... =) sin la complejidad de tener que armar un cURL a mano..
- (2019-10-23) Jason Priebe: Much faster than using Postman for simple tasks; also allows you to take advantage of authentication cookies that your browser obtained via a web login, so you don't have to worry about the authentication piece.
- (2018-07-08) Emile Akbarzadeh: Very good REST client if you're looking for quick basic functionality
- (2018-03-26) Devil App: Very very good
- (2018-03-22) Pet Er: Returned links are not clickable, you have to paste them manually to follow them. This kills usability. Additionally, it should support templated links. As it stands it is better to use an extension to display JSON and the developer console.
- (2017-04-01) Maksym Nosovets: Very helpful and simple REST client!

I have to type content-type = application/json each time, can you have some predefined header values, please? - (2023-02-14, v:0.7.2) Mr. Flint: Headers

Hi, I would like to pass current timestamp or date through the rest body. I am able to do it using "new Date().toISPString" in postman, but it would helpful if something similar is available on RESTMAN, quick and easy. - (2020-10-05, v:0.7.1) Call restman from Delphi programm
Hello. I have installed the extension restman on Chrome browser. There is a way can I call POST / GET methods from an external Delphi program through chrome ?? - (2019-09-18, v:0.7) Christophe Laverdure: Raw headers
It would be great if we had the option to copy paste a bunch of headers instead of typing them one by one. A "raw" button with a textbox (similar to what we have for the body) would do the job perfectly... and it shouldn't be hard to add! - (2018-02-05, v:0.7) Daniele (Danielix): cookies
did your extension use existing chrome cookies into get request? - (2017-09-13, v:0.7) 3James Smith: [email protected]
