Keyboard shortcuts

In this table, Mod is ⌘ (Command) on macOS and Ctrl on Windows and Linux. The keyboard button in the title bar shows the main shortcuts inside the app.

ShortcutDoes
Mod EnterThe main action of the tab: send the request (or connect a WebSocket, Socket.IO, SSE, TCP, MQTT … session, or subscribe), start or restart a server, start or stop a load test, start or stop a collection run.
Mod SSave the tab (request, load test, server …).
Mod NNew HTTP request.
Mod WClose the tab (asks first when it has unsaved changes).
Mod K or Mod PCommand palette: go to a request, load test, server or tool.
Mod LPut the cursor in the URL.
Ctrl TabNext tab (Ctrl on every system, also on macOS).
Ctrl Shift TabPrevious tab.

⌘ Q (macOS)Quit Zorvik. Asks first while servers or a load test run.

Body, script, GraphQL and response editors are code editors:

ShortcutDoes
Mod FSearch in the editor or response (with replace in editable editors).
Mod EnterIn an editor that has its own action (for example a message composer), that action; otherwise the tab’s main action above.
Mod Z / Mod Shift ZUndo / redo.
Tab / Shift TabIndent / outdent. To leave an editor with the keyboard, press Esc, then Tab.

Editors also close brackets and quotes as you type, fold blocks, and complete {{variables}}.

KeyDoes
EscClose the dialog. With unsaved edits it asks first; an open autocomplete list closes before the dialog. In an AI agent’s approval dialog, Esc means Deny.
EnterConfirm the focused button. In an agent’s approval dialog, the focus starts on Deny.
↑ ↓ EnterMove through and pick in the command palette and in the request picker of a load test.
  • The app shortcuts work when a workspace is open, in the workbench. They are off in the Training Bootcamp’s Academy view.
  • While a dialog is open, only the zoom keys work; the other keys belong to the dialog.
  • In the tab bar, ← and → move between tabs (Home and End to the first and last) and Enter or Space opens one.
  • The zoom keys work everywhere, also on the welcome screen and in dialogs.
  • Combinations with Alt / Option are left to the system.
  • On macOS, Zorvik uses ⌘ so that Ctrl keeps its text-editing meaning in fields.
  • A held Mod Enter on a runner tab doesn’t stop the run it just started.
