Postman v8.7.0
What's new
This version introduces "Warnings" in API validation, with the addition of Security Warnings enabled for all APIs on Postman which are authored in OpenAPI 3.0. Feel free to try this out in the API define tab, otherwise read on to learn more about it!
To get started open any API in Postman and select the "Warnings" tab as shown below.
Once the "Warnings" tab is selected, your API definition will be validated against a set of security best practices as mention on the Postman Learning Center. After selecting the "Warnings" tab, you will be able to
- Identify gaps in the security posture of your API definition
- Understand the implications, severity and ways to remediate these gaps using the "Possible fix" link as shown below
We hope you find this useful!
