Are you going to show us how you have setup the authorization for the collection\requests?

Scheduled runs are executed from the Postman Cloud. Which means that Postman Cloud must have access to your authorization endpoints.

Enterprise licences allow you to have a static IP for the Postman Cloud that you can whitelist just in case this is the issue.

Thanks! Having looked into it I’m pretty certain that’s my problem now but i’m principally training at the moment so probably wont get the enterprise licence or professional licence to fully confirm. Much appreciated.
