**Friend, the Insomnia x Kong Konnect integration might just be for you. **
Kong Konnect is where your API truth lives. Every service, spec, version…. The canonical record of what your APIs are. The problem has been connecting your source of truth to testing it. Insomnia 13 closes this gap. With the native Kong Konnect integration, your routes, endpoints, and configurations live right where you’re already doing your API work. No more tab-hopping. No more “is this the latest version?” No more getting lost in Slack messages (well, at least for endpoints).
Connect your Kong Konnect organization directly to Insomnia and get instant, up-to-date access to everything your platform team has already set up. Your developers stay in flow. Your platform team stays sane. You keep your developer and platform workflows in harmony, without bouncing between tabs like it’s 2019.
And as your teams start connecting agentic AI to your APIs, this matters even more. An agent operating from a stale spec can call deprecated endpoints, pass outdated parameters, and fail in ways that make it nearly impossible to debug. The native Kong Konnect integration with Insomnia means the context you deliver to your agents is the same context your platform teams have already verified, versioned, and tested.
“Finally, my API platform team and my dev team can stop emailing each other zip files.”

Insomnia 13 delivers a redesigned navigation experience, and your first request is now embarrassingly easy to make. We rebuilt the "getting started" experience with a goal of getting you to your first request without a single moment of “wait, where do I click?” It’s a UI that makes sense whether you’ve been using Insomnia for years or you installed it 12 minutes ago.
Your new devs get the guided, intuitive onboarding experience that doesn’t assume prior knowledge or induce headaches. Your experienced devs get an interface that matches how they already think. It’s the breadcrumbs *Hansel and Gretel *wish they had.
Turns out "please follow the API style guide" is not an enforcement strategy.
Custom linting rules are now available for all projects (including Cloud projects) in Insomnia 13, plus in the UI.
This means the standards your team spent time defining will actually be applied automatically, consistently, and without relying on anyone's good memory during a code review. Write the rule once; it travels with the project everywhere it goes.
Bad API design gets flagged before it becomes your problem.
**In case you missed it in **[_**Insomnia 12.6: Native Git CLI **_](https://konghq.com/blog/product-releases/insomnia-12-6)_**Insomnia 12.6: Native Git CLI **_
