Once you prepared a request, click the `Send Request` link above the request (this will appear if the file's language mode is `HTTP`, by default `.http` files are like this), or use shortcut `Ctrl+Alt+R`(`Cmd+Alt+R` for macOS), or right-click in the editor and then select `Send Request` in the menu, or press `F1` and then select/type `Rest Client: Send Request`, the response will be previewed in a separate __webview__ panel of Visual Studio Code. If you'd like to use the full power of searching, selecting or manipulating in Visual Studio Code, you can also preview response in __an untitled document__ by setting `rest-client.previewResponseInUntitledDocument` to `true`. Once a request is issued, the waiting spin icon will be displayed in the status bar until the response is received. You can click the spin icon to cancel the request. After that, the icon will be replaced with the total duration and response size.

Once you’ve finalized your request in REST Client extension, you might want to make the same request from your source code. We allow you to generate snippets of code in various languages and libraries that will help you achieve this.

## Environments
Environments give you the ability to customize requests using variables, and you can easily switch environment without changing requests in `http` file. A common usage is having different configurations for different web service environments, like devbox, sandbox, and production. We also support the __shared__ environment(identified by special environment name _$shared_) to provide a set of variables that are available in all environments. And you can define the same name variable in your specified environment to overwrite the value in shared environment. Currently, active environment's name is displayed at the right bottom of `Visual Studio Code`, when you click it, you can switch environment in the pop-up list. And you can also switch environment using shortcut `Ctrl+Alt+E`(`Cmd+Alt+E` for macOS), or press `F1` and then select/type `Rest Client: Switch Environment`.

Environments and including variables are defined directly in `Visual Studio Code` setting file, so you can create/update/delete environments and variables at any time you wish. If you __DO NOT__ want to use any environment, you can choose `No Environment` in the environment list. Notice that if you select `No Environment`, variables defined in shared environment are still available. See [Environment Variables](#environment-variables) for more details about environment variables.
