Turning sync **off** isn’t possible but we added the notion of `Sessions` in a previous release that enables you to store sensitive information (API keys, tokens, etc) as environment variables that aren’t synced.

- Sessions FAQ – [Sessions FAQ | Postman Blog](https://blog.getpostman.com/2018/08/09/sessions-faq/)
- The RFC – [https://community.postman.com/t/sessions-in-postman/1925](https://community.postman.com/t/sessions-in-postman/1925)

* * *

**tl;dr** – Store your sensitive data within the `Current Values` field in the environment template so that it isn’t synced.
