Hey folks

A common myth I hear all the time — “You need to know coding to use APIs.”
Not true at all!

Postman makes it easy to explore and test APIs even if you’re not a developer.
Here are a few quick things anyone can do without writing code:

  • Send a GET request and see live API responses

  • Use pre-built snippets in the Code section

  • Add query params or headers visually

  • Save and share collections

API learning doesn’t have to start with coding — Postman lets you learn by doing
