insomnia v11.0.2, .insomnia folder missing

[emr02]

I’ve synced Insomnia with my Azure Repo using git sync. In my personal workspace, when I commit and push changes, only 2 YAML files appear in the root of my Azure Repo. From docs (https://docs.insomnia.rest/inso-cli/introduction), a .insomnia folder should be generated the first time I push changes, but I don’t see it. Any ideas ?

Hi @emr02 from version 11 onwards we introduced git projects which don't have the limitation of the .insomnia folder. Your collections and documents are now stored as a single .yaml file and can be stored anywhere in your repository https://docs.insomnia.rest/insomnia/git-sync#how-are-insomnia-files-stored-in-my-repository

Hi @gatzjames Thanks for the reply, I'm new to this, so it's very confusing.
How inso CLI works now ? i have 2 .yaml files (1 document and 1 environment and they are related) but when i try : inso --file my_file.yaml, it says error: unknown option '--file'
How can i execute them ?

Hi, The inso CLI does not support a --file flag, which is why you're seeing the unknown option error.

In inso cli you can use the following commands -

1. To run tests - inso run test "design document name" --env "environment name"
2. To run a collection - inso run collection "collection name" --env "environment name"
3. To lint an OpenAPI spec - inso lint spec "design document name"

For more details, refer to the inso cli documentation, here - https://developer.konghq.com/inso-cli/.

Thank you.
