JSON Import
JSON Import
Section titled “JSON Import”Import endpoints from an API Dev Studio JSON export file (.json). This completes the round-trip with the JSON export feature, letting you move endpoints between projects or share them with teammates.

Step 1: Select File
Section titled “Step 1: Select File”- Click Import in the toolbar

| Method | HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.) |
