Impressive project. I was curious how it discovers data relationships and was going to check the repo, but it looks like there's no code, only issues and releases. Is that right?

Which leads me to...

- Is this closed source?

- Does it cost money?

- How does it discover data relationships?

Thanks for your interest!

- Is this closed source?

Currently, the code is not open source, but I might open-source parts of it in the future.

- Does it cost money?

The software is free to use. If there is demand, I might create a "pro" version for businesses in the future. However, I intend to always have a free version available for individuals.

- How does it discover data relationships?

I've discussed how it discovers data relationships in the documentation here: https://docs.apiparrot.com/docs/tutorial-extras/exchange-mod....

In short, the tool breaks down the data in the requests and responses into smaller parts by identifying their formats. For example, `["foo", "bar"]` would be recognized as a JSON array and broken down into the elements `"foo"` and `"bar"`. By applying this method recursively, you build a tree-like structure of the data.

If an exact match is found between data in a response from a previous request and data in a subsequent request, a correlation is detected.

Please feel free to ask if you have any more questions!

If this can save me time at work, I'd be happy to throw some money at it.

My bosses OTOH...let's just say, there's no penalty within companies for pointy haired bosses not making decisions to purchase something like this and ignoring staff.

It's a false economy but I'm tired of it and just purchase what I can afford.

It's entertaining that Github has become such a common place to find information that even closed source projects put something up there
