Problem: Currently, Postman only allows publishing an entire collection to the API Network. There is no option to selectively publish specific folders or requests within a collection.
Use Case: In large collections, not all folders/requests are meant for public or external audiences. For example, I have a collection with multiple folders for different services, but I only want to publish one specific folder as documentation for external consumers.
Proposed Solution: Add a publishing option at the folder level (and optionally at the request level) that allows users to:
-
Select specific folders or requests to include in the published documentation
-
Keep the rest of the collection private/internal
This would be similar to how some tools allow selective export or visibility toggles per resource.
Impact: This would greatly improve the flexibility of Postman’s API documentation publishing, especially for teams managing large, multi-service collections.
