General
The General tab contains global preferences that apply across all projects:
IDE Integration
Configure what IDE you want to open when clicking in specific buttons to open controllers associated with the listed routes.
Available options:
- VS Code
- PhpStorm
- Sublime Text
- Cursor
Authentication
Configure how Routesy authenticates requests to your Laravel application. Available methods:
- None — No authentication headers added
- Bearer Token — Sends an
Authorization: Bearer <token>header - Basic Auth — Sends HTTP Basic authentication with username and password
- Sanctum — Cookie-based authentication with configurable CSRF, login, logout endpoints and login fields
Request Timeout
You can configure the request timeout from 1 to 300 seconds. The default value is 10 seconds. If a request exceeds the configured timeout, it will be automatically cancelled.
Block Request with Empty Required Fields
When enabled, Routesy will prevent sending a request if any required field is left empty. This helps avoid unnecessary requests with missing data. You can learn more about how Routesy detects required fields in the Route Auto-Discovery page.
Sidebar Position
Choose whether the route sidebar appears on the left or right side of the main window. A mini layout preview shows how the interface will look with the selected position.
