Hi,

In a company environment with around 30 developers/testers, each person may install and use the Postman desktop app individually to test and debug APIs, without relying on shared workspaces or advanced collaboration features.

Is this permitted under the Free plan? Are there any restrictions to be aware of when Postman is used in this way inside an organization?

Thanks in advance.

Hi @ahokkonen. Welcome to the Postman Community:postman:.

The free plan only limits you to three collaborating users in a team. This means you can only have three people from your organization added to a team, and each person can own separate workspaces.

Thanks, that helps a lot.

Just to clarify one more point - if developers/testers in a company are not part of a Postman team (so no shared workspaces, just individual accounts and local use of the desktop app), this usage is still permitted under the Free plan, even though it is for commercial/company projects?

Yes, @ahokkonen. This is possible, but it might not be the ideal way to use Postman since you can’t collaborate effectively with your team. Could you share a bit more info about why your team wants to work this way?
