User reviews

insomnia's recent update caused it to be unable to fetch a schema i use--i think its because of its depth? I don't know. This extension is able to and works wonderfully. Has similar functionality to Postman. Just be aware when passing headers it is in JSON format.

Great extension. Great way to test GraphQL server. Since Apollo server doesn't add explorer to dev env, with this you don't need to setup explorer yourself manually. And you can use it even if the GraphQL is protected with password since it use your browser cookies.
