Not sure the tool is design for load testing, or if this will help you. But it is a good example of spawning lots of calls from a single postman API call.

//pre call code
function makelotsofrequests(runnumber) {

let url= 'http://foo.com/api/something?x=runnumber'
pm.sendRequest(url, function (error, response) {
const data = response.json();
pm.environment.set(runnumber, JSON.stringify(data));

});

let max = 100;

for (let i=1; i< max; i++) {

makelotsofrequests(i);

}

//post call code

function processdatafromlotsofrequests(runnumber) {

xdata = JSON.parse(pm.environment.get(runnumber));
// console.log('run ' + i + '  report some values from responsebody ' + xdata.message ); // set xdata.message to what is in your responses
pm.environment.unset(runnumber);

});

let max = 100;

for (let i=1; i< max; i++) {
processdatafromlotsofrequests(i);

}

As mentioned earlier, Postman isn’t really a load-testing or concurrency testing tool, buy you should spend some time looking at this node module:
