Second option is by creating a link and sending it to the people of your team. You can create unlimited personal workspace which will be personal to your machine and can test any number of API. Individuals can organize their work in personal workspaces and teams can collaborate in team workspaces. When you start Postman, you are already inside personal workspace as shown. Postman will have no contribution in updating it at any machine, if present.Collections present in the personal workspace is shared through link which is detailed below.
Once edited, everyone's API is updated automatically. This comes handy when teams are located in different locations or different buildings also.
SAVE POSTMAN COLLECTION UPDATE
In Team workspace option, your team can test API simultaneously on one workspace and anyone can edit and update (with permissions).
SAVE POSTMAN COLLECTION PRO
In simpler terms, workspace is the project in which you work. After signing into Postman you get two options to share the collection.Ī workspace is a collaborative environment for a group of users to develop and test APIs. Rather, we share our Collection as a whole to the team members or anyone to whom we want to share through different methods listed below.įor example, if you are a tester and find out some bug, you can save your steps to reproduce in a Collection, and attach the same to the bug for the developer as a proof and to reproduce the issue. For using this option you must be signed into postman. It is not worth sharing every request one by one. Or even you create a bunch of Postman Requests, save it to a Collections and share it with your team. You can request developers to share their collections and you get benefits of it. There are times when developers create a bunch of Postman Requests while developing APIs to test it.
Sharing a collection is very important when you are working in a company or in a team. Share collection option is used to share the collection to other people such as your team members. We will talk about the following options in this tutorial. You can click on the Meatballs menu in the side of the collection name and you will see some options. Now look at the collections tab, you will have the request saved below your collection name. Choose your collection name in the panel as shown in the image.Press Save button in the side of address bar. Now, you have your first collection created but it's empty as of now. Press Create to create your first collection. In the following image you can see I chose the name MyFirstCollection and a simple description. Write a name of your choice for your first collection and it's description.Now go to Collections Tab and press the icon that says, New Collection.7.3.How to create and save collections in Postman?ġ.First of all, hit the endpoint and in the response box change the format to Text to see the result. Since the double-brace syntax is not valid JavaScript, we use the pm.variables.get() function to access the id variable.įinally, let's save the changes as we've done before. Pm.expect(pm.response.json().id).to.equal(pm.variables.get("id")) ) Pm.expect(pm.response.json().name).to.equal("Transformers")) We can use the id variable to do that: pm.test("success status", () => pm.response.to.be.success ) Secondly, we know which id to expect this time, so let's verify that id. Because the tests are similar, we can copy the tests from the POST request, then make a few changes.įirstly, we don't need to set the id variable again, so let's not copy that line. Since there's no body for a GET request, let's proceed directly to the Tests tab. Variables, when appearing outside of scripts, are referenced using the double-brace syntax. Thus, the GET request should retrieve the same instance that was created by the POST. In this URL, we're referencing the id variable that we previously set during the POST request.
