UDS (Unix Domain Socket) Support please

Help Hub

The only reason I’m still using Insomnia is for its unix domain socket support. I have a need for it at my work, and also there’s some cool stuff you can do with Docker.

I was so desperate to get back to using Postman that I set up socat as a bridge from TCP to the UDS socket. But it’s a security violation at my work so I can’t publish my results.

Hi! If you’re still looking for this feature, Postman now supports connecting to servers running over Unix domain sockets.

You can use the following URL format: <protocol>://unix:<socket-path>:<resource-path>
For example: http://unix:/var/run/docker.sock:/hello

Please update your Postman app to version 11.69.6 or later to try it out.
