Built-In schema support makes it easy to learn APIs
Use schemas to generate collections and and learn how the API works.
Broad schema support
Use the API specification format of your choice in Postman. Write, edit, or import schema formats including RAML, WADL, OpenAPI, and GraphQL. Then generate collections directly from the schema.
Edit and version schema
Track and stay up to date on changes to the API design with built-in support for editing and versioning schemas in Postman. No more having to switch between tools.
Source of truth
Rely on your schema as a source of truth for API design and development and ensure all teams are on the same page.
Share knowledge in Workspaces
Workspaces provide a shared context for your APIs, helping everyone stay in sync.
Stay in sync
Automatic and secure syncing ensures that every workspace member gets the latest updates as soon as changes are pushed.
Maintain a single source of truth
Workspaces provide a single source of truth that you and your team can easily maintain through a git-like version control process.
Create unlimited Workspaces
Just sign up for a Postman account to create as many personal, team, or private workspaces as you need—for free.
Design and develop faster with schema support
Postman schema support gives you visibility into your API specifications and structure.
Write documentation directly in Postman to make your APIs easier to consume.
Document directly in Postman
Document your descriptions for collections, folders, and requests in markdown. Postman automatically pulls these descriptions along with code snippets, example responses, headers, and more to populate your documentation with dynamic examples and machine-readable instructions.
Publish with a single click
Publish your API documentation with the click of a button. The pages are automatically generated, and updates are automatically synced. You can even publish on a custom domain.
Add the Run in Postman button for faster onboarding
Add the Run in Postman Button to your documentation or GitHub README so consumers can import the collection and documentation directly into Postman.
What is Postman?
Postman is an API platform for building and using APIs. Postman simplifies each step of the API lifecycle and streamlines collaboration so you can create better APIs—faster.
API Tools
A comprehensive set of tools that help accelerate the API Lifecycle—from design, testing, documentation, and mocking to discovery.
API Repository
Easily store, iterate and collaborate around all your API artifacts on one central platform used across teams.
Workspaces
Organize your API work and collaborate with teammates across your organization or stakeholders across the world.
Governance
Improve the quality of APIs with governance rules that ensure APIs are designed, built, tested, and distributed meeting organizational standards.
Case studies
See a wide selection of detailed use cases from nearly every industry on the Postman case studies page.
