You can easily roll your own with the Apache server and RPG (if that's your
flavor). Node.js also works well. Then theres IWS.

I'm sorry. Obviously I was very unclear as to my intentions. (It's
Friday) Btw, I use Postman.

I want to write the apis on an IBM i that is accessible from the web. I
have written a number of apis but they are only accessible while using my
vpn. I want to write some apis on an IBM i which can be called without a
vpn. I also mention IWS as that is what I'm currently using although I
have used httpapi in the past.

If I'm way off in hoping that something like this would be available, let
me know. It may be just too great of a security risk to make this
available. I'm not sure as I'm just starting down the webservice road.

Thanks again,

Rob

Me too. I have also Postman and SOAPUI - but Insomnia has (for me) a
more
intuitive interface.

Robert,

I use the Insomnia Core package -

I use it to test my REST APIs on the IBM i all of the time.
