Postman is a platform for API-first
development. Postman's features simplify
each step of building an API and streamline
collaboration so you can create better
APIs—faster.

Workspaces Beta

Public Workspaces Highlights
2 Provide a unified developer experience
3 Reach audiences quickly with simple access provisioning
4 Manage and build a professional presence
1 Unlimited FREE collaboration with the largest API community

Unlimited FREE collaboration with
the Largest API Community
Comment on APIs, collections, and specific parts of a
request.
‘Watch’ (or follow) APIs to be notified as changes are
made.
Fork a collection to create a copy in your own
workspace.
Search through the entire universe of APIs
accessible to you.

Provide a Unified Developer
Experience for Faster Onboarding
Reduce time to first request with authentication
provisioned and configured workspaces.
Developers can experience all the API lifecycle
elements (schema, mocks, tests, monitors,
documentation, and collections) in a single
workspace.
Producers can troubleshoot developers’ problems
in real time as they interact with the public
workspace.

Reach Audiences Quickly with
Simple Access Provisioning
Publishers can control access to a workspace.
New “community manager” role to manage your
public presence.

Manage and Build a Professional
Presence in the API Community
The public profile is a user’s (or team’s)
presence on Postman where others in the
community can find out more about them
and discover their public workspace projects.
