Request History
Samvad automatically records every request you send, so you can review past calls, replay them, or restore a previous state.
How History Works
Every time you press Send, Samvad stores:
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Method | HTTP method used |
| Name | Request name or URL |
| URL | Full request URL |
| Status | HTTP response status code |
| Duration | Request time in milliseconds |
| Timestamp | Date and time of the request |
History is persisted across sessions — your history is still there after you close and reopen Samvad.
Viewing History
Open the History panel from the sidebar (clock icon). Entries are sorted newest-first.
Each entry shows:
- Method badge (color-coded)
- Request name and URL
- Response status code
- Timestamp
Replaying a Request
Click any history entry to open the request in a new tab with all the original settings pre-filled: URL, method, headers, auth, and body.
This is useful for:
- Debugging a previous failure
- Re-testing an endpoint after a fix
- Quickly accessing a recently used request
Filtering History
Use the search bar at the top of the History panel to filter by:
- URL or request name
- HTTP method
- Status code
History is Per Workspace
History entries are associated with the active workspace. Switching workspaces shows only the history for that workspace.
Tips
- History is great for reproducing bugs — find the exact request that caused an error and replay it.
- Use history as a quick-access list for frequently used one-off requests before saving them to a collection.
