How Mapping Works

Solo optimizes files during import:

Automatic Organization: Maintains the original nested folder structure.
Format Detection: Automatically analyzes content to set syntax highlighting (JSON, XML, or text).
BaseURL Support: Automatically identifies the server URL in OpenAPI and sets it as the base for imported requests.

Rapid Migration Guide

Move your workload to Solo using the following steps:

Open the Import Panel: Click the ”+” or “Import” button in the left sidebar.
Choose Source: Select the format of the file you want to upload.
Drag and Drop: Drag the file or folder into the DropZone area.
