Hi there. (noob)

I’m trying to understand if you support sending the same command with a different parameter that this parameter is taken from a text file.

So assuming I want to send a POST request:  
POST Hello x  
where x is taken from a text file ( csv,text,xsl, else )

so the final requests will be:

1. POST Hello Tomer
2. POST Hello Support
3. POST Hello world  
4…n ) same…

Is it possible to have this run?

Hey @tobenary, this can be done with CSV data files, as has been documented here: [https://www.getpostman.com/docs/v6/variables\_and\_environments/multiple\_instances](https://www.getpostman.com/docs/v6/variables_and_environments/multiple_instances) 😄
