[Feature Request] Context menu to set environment variable

See original GitHub issue
  • Insomnia Version: 7.0.3.3074
  • Operating System: MacOS

Details

Hello, I don’t know if this has already been asked (searched a bit in the issues but didn’t found something related). It would be nice to have an option like in Postman to set an environnement variable value from a selected value in the response throught the contextual menu. Just like in this screen (Dev is the name of my current used environnement): image

I’m using this in Postman when I’m getting a list of data and then doing an other request where I want to edit/view/use a given id as a parameter 😃

I know I there is chaining request that could take data from the first request but this solution does not allow me to choose the item in the list of data that I want to use but only the first one. I should use a json path as $.data.items[0].id.
