Today you can update only by manually downloading new app version and reinstalling it. I'm working on automatic updates.

Working with 64-bit integers

If you want to send 64-bit integers (int64, uint64, sint64, fixed64, sfixed64) just wrap values in quotes.

{
  "int64": "9223372036854775807"
  "uint64": "18446744073709551615

In this release I have concentrated on user experience:

• Full support of shortcuts
• Reworked collections management
• Notifications
• Improved UX

gRPC clients I’ve worked with had drawbacks and didn’t fit my use-case in a way I was expecting, since I’ve started working with gRPC 3+ years ago.

Since then, I wanted a tool that fits any need in gRPC world. This is why I created ezy.

Compared to Insomnia and Postman, ezy offers better streams support, allows you to use Server-Side and Mutual TLS with custom TLS certificates, works with gRPC-Web and has a more slick UI/UX.

If you are looking for a gRPC/gRPC-Web client which fits your needs, give ezy a chance!

I’d love to hear your feedback and answer any questions regarding ezy.
