Keyboard Shortcuts

Open Settings > Shortcuts to see all keyboard shortcuts for your platform. Use the filter to find an action by name.

Customize a Shortcut

1. Open Settings > Shortcuts and find the action.
2. Open its menu and choose Add Keyboard Shortcut.
3. Click the shortcut input, press your key combination, and click Save.

An action can have more than one key combination. Use its menu to remove individual bindings, or choose Reset to Default to restore the original shortcuts. Removing all bindings disables the shortcut for that action.

Editor Key Bindings

Open Settings > Interface, find the Editor section, and choose an Editor keymap:

• Default — Yaak’s standard editor key bindings.
• Vim — Modal editing with Vim key bindings.
• VSCode — Familiar Visual Studio Code editing shortcuts.
• Emacs — Emacs-style editing shortcuts.

The keymap applies to text editors, including request and response bodies. App actions such as sending requests are configured separately in Settings > Shortcuts.
