Bulk Execution

Overview

Bulk execution lets you run every request in a collection one after another, with a detailed results view showing the status of each request.

Running a collection

1. Right-click a collection in the sidebar
2. Select Run Collection
3. The bulk run modal opens and begins executing requests sequentially

Results view

Each request in the run shows:

• Status indicator — Pending (gray), Running (spinner), Success (green checkmark), Error (red X)
• Request name and HTTP method
• Response status code (e.g., 200 OK, 404 Not Found)
• Duration in milliseconds

Click on any result to expand and see more details.

Execution behavior

• Requests run sequentially in their collection order
• The active environment is used for variable substitution
• Each request is recorded in your history as if sent individually
• If a request fails (network error, timeout), it’s marked as an error and the next request proceeds
• The retry on failure setting is respected per request

Use cases

• Smoke testing — Verify all endpoints in an API are responding
• Data seeding — Run a series of POST requests to set up test data
• Regression checks — Re-run a saved collection after code changes
