Steps to Clone and Edit the Postman Documentation
Open the Postman App: If you don’t have Postman installed, download and install it from the official site: Postman Download.
Import the Collection from the Documentation:
- Open the link you provided: Postman Documentation.
- In the documentation, find the "Run in Postman" button or the "Import" button. Typically, you'll see a "Run in Postman" button at the top of the documentation page. Clicking on it will allow you to import the collection into your Postman workspace.
- Alternatively, copy the documentation link or the collection link if available.
Import the Collection in Postman:
- In the Postman app, go to the top left corner and click on the "Import" button.
- In the pop-up window, select the "Link" tab.
- Paste the link to the collection (the one you copied from the documentation) and click "Continue".
- After reviewing the summary, click "Import".
Edit the Collection:
- Once the collection is imported, you'll see it in the "Collections" tab in the left-hand pane.
- Click on the imported collection, and you can now start editing any request within the collection:
- Edit the request URLs.
- Change request methods (GET, POST, etc.).
- Modify request headers, parameters, or body content.
Edit Environment (Optional):
- If the documentation provides environment variables, you can configure them in Postman:
- Click the "Environment" tab (in the bottom-left or in the "Manage Environments" settings).
- Add or edit any environment variables the collection depends on (e.g.,
{{base_url}}
,{{token}}
).
- If the documentation provides environment variables, you can configure them in Postman:
Save and Share:
- After making the necessary changes, you can save the collection.
- If you want to create your own documentation, go to the "..." (three dots) next to the collection, and select "Share Collection".
- Choose "View in web" and generate new documentation for your customized collection.
Additional Tip: Forking a Collection
If the collection owner allows public forking:
- On the documentation page, look for a "Fork" option (available under some public collections).
- Click "Fork Collection".
- Choose a workspace where you'd like to fork the collection.
- Once forked, it will appear in your Postman workspace, and you can edit it as needed.
