Is there a way to hide some requests from the postman report

I am using a python script to run newman to execuete the postman collection.

newman run {collectionURL} --folder {folderName} -e {environmentURL} -d {jsonDataFile} --reporters cli,json,htmlextra --reporter-json-export {jsonReport} --reporter-htmlextra-export {htmlReport}

I have some requests that I make to prepare my test data befroe hitting the APIs Im actually testing.

In my report the results are shown based on all the calls I made. Is there a way to omit the requests I make to get the test data and only keep the requests that I make to the APIs that I am testing?

That way my test report shows more realistic view.

Thanks

Hey @asanke-corto :wave:

Welcome to the Postman community :postman:

In htmlextra, you could use either of these flags in the command.

Skip Folders:

newman run collection.json -r htmlextra --reporter-htmlextra-skipFolders "folder name with space,folderWithoutSpace"

Skip Requests:

newman run collection.json -r htmlextra --reporter-htmlextra-skipRequests "request name with space,requestWithoutSpace"

You can find all of the other commands, with examples, on the readme.
