Manage APIs like you manage code

Bruno collections are plain-text files in your Git repository. Branch them, review them in a pull request, and use the access controls your team already has.

The challenge

Shared API collections get messy fast

Collections scattered everywhere

Exports in Slack, screenshots in tickets, one person's laptop. Nobody's sure which copy is current.

No history, no accountability

Who changed that endpoint, and why? Without version control, the answer is a guess.

Cloud lock-in and clunky sharing

Seat-based cloud workspaces add cost and friction to something that should be simple.

How Bruno helps

Your Git workflow, applied to APIs

1

Collections as code

Requests live as plain-text files, right next to the service they describe.

2

Full history, for free

Every change is a commit. See who edited a request, when, and why, with the whole Git log behind it.

3

Changes go through review

Open a pull request for an API change. Discuss it, approve it, and merge it, the same way you ship code.

4

The permissions you already have

Access is governed by your repository. No separate seats, workspaces, or access layers to administer.
