Postman v7.24.0

Hello! We hope you're staying safe and healthy. Here's what you can find in this Postman release:

What's New

  • Some big changes to the API Builder that make creating and linking API elements even easier:
    • When you generate a collection, you now have the additional option to create a mock server or monitor on top of that collection. If you'd rather create a collection from scratch for a monitor or mock server, you can also do that directly from the API Builder.
    • You can generate collections for documentation and test suites from the "Develop" and "Test" tabs that are automatically linked to your API. Previously, you could only link existing collections.
  • There's a new encryption key you can set for an added layer of security when communicating with the Interceptor extension.
  • When generating OAuth2 tokens, you can now authenticate via your default browser #7700, #8059
  • You can check in real-time whether your schema is synced to your GitHub repository.

Improvements

  • We've made various improvements to the code and description editors. Markdown descriptions have better syntax highlighting support now. In pre-request and test scripts, Postman variable suggestions now show up within relevant Postman Sandbox methods.
  • You can now "move" a collection or API to another workspace. When sharing it to another workspace, select the option to remove it from the current workspace.
  • Added additional import configurations for OpenAPI, RAML, and GraphQL files so that you can import your data exactly how you like it #82
  • We've also optimized the workspace switcher modal for better performance.
