Where does the output file get saved? (P.S.: Silent failure when no output path is specified)

Open merc1er opened this issue 1 year ago • 2 comments

After using the default filter options, nothing happens and it does not display where the file was saved. I tried looking into the plugin folder, and in the home directory, but can't see any export file.

It would be nice to display where the output file is saved, or at least show the default path in the docs or in a dialog box.

Edit: I saw the issue https://github.com/Vyoam/insomnia-plugin-postman-export/issues/2, but it focuses on dialog box issues, not on the output file location.

I think without an proper value for the path, it does fail.

So, please put a valid path e.g. in windows: c:\users\yourNtid

I'll keep this issue open and have a proper fix later - a proper default, exception handling, proper sample path

Along these lines, I noticed that if you don't put anything in the Request ID CSV prompt (which says Leave Blank to Skip), it never makes it to the Output Path selection. Took me a few minutes to figure out, no big deal, just leaving a note for others! 👍
