Requestly Update – August 2024

Hey Requestlians 👋,

Here is another exciting update from Requestly. Let’s jump in👇🏻

🚀 Shared State: A New Way to Manage Data Across Rules

We’ve introduced a powerful new feature called Shared State. This allows you to store and retrieve data within and across Modify Request Body and Modify Response Body rules. It’s perfect for:

• Set Shared State variables while modifying requestBody and consume them while modifying responseBody
• Modify Request or Response Body based on condition like It is N=3rd request
• Managing tokens or values across different API requests

📦 Bulk Actions for File Server

Good news! We’ve addressed the bulk actions functionality for the File Server.

• Import & Export JSON Files
• Share JSON Files as Collection
  

💾 Local Storage Support in Sessions

We have introduced support for capturing LocalStorage in Requestly Sessions. Requestly helps you capture the events whenever there is a change in the local storage.

At BlockThrough, we enable publishers to serve better ads and users to have a more balanced online experience. Publishers integrate our technology through javascript and Requestly has been instrumental for our workflows from development, testing & deploying our product. Our entire frontend and solution engineering teams use Requestly to QA changes across environments, and test our features on publisher websites before going live. Thanks Requestly for supporting us!
