tl;dr we released github.com/Escape-Technologies/graphman, a free and open source tool that generates a Postman collection for any GraphQL endpoint in seconds 👨🚀
We use GraphQL with Postman a lot in our team. GraphQL is pretty verbose and we found it quite painful to write all the queries by hand when interacting with any new endpoint.
So we created Graphman, a tiny utility that uses GraphQL's introspection capability to generate a full Postman collection for any GraphQL endpoint.
Happy to release this to the community as a free and open source dev tool 🤟

That seems like something that is totally needed.
GrapphQL being a standard, I feel like it should nothing in it is specific to Postman no ? Apart from the very last step where you store the queries in the Postman collection format.
I use insomnia.rest/ and the GraphQL plugin for IntelliJ
If you have an option to write the queries simply in a plain folder with plain
some-query.graphqlfiles, I would totally use it.EDIT: converted comment to an issue github.com/Escape-Technologies/gra...
Indeed, actually it's already compatible with insomnia through Postman collections, but I saw that you added an issue for broader support and that's definitely something we will do
Nice project! 😁
