[FEATURE REQUEST] Meeting user expectations when editing uploaded specs and source file updates.

[rootext]

What is your question? Insomnia Designer is great tool but I don't understand how I can use it to modify existing API definition .yaml? I can import a file using Create -> Import from -> File but after that no changes are synced to the original file. My expected scenario is the following:

1. Run Insomnia Designer and open existing API definition file.
2. I modify API definition (debug, preview etc.)
3. All changes are saved to opened file

What is the context? Insomnia Designer

Hi @rootext

Currently we create a local instance of the file in the app directory instead of modifying the original, is the ask here for the application to modify the opened file instead?

Exactly.

If you maintain your definition file in git or something like that, the current behavior is very confusing and also the UI doesn't explain that a copy is created.
