Working within Postman in âscratchpadâ mode, not logged-in
Using the inbuilt ârun testsâ system
After some time of using this (weeks), I was then forced by Postman licencing to login, as the tests will refuse to run and the message âsign up or loginâ appears.
On logging in I assumed that my previous work would be saved - it did not. After signing in and staying in scratchpad mode, there are no collections nor requests. My work is lost at this stage.
Why was my scratchpad work removed after I was forced to login ? More importantly - how do I recover it ?
How do I switch back to the previous âscratchpad modeâ, as that seems to be impossible now. There are no options to change from Workspace to Scratchpad in any menu.
Same here, Postman destroyed all my work, no trace of it.
The only positive note is that I now have an account to post about Postman destroying my work.
Same here, I was scared of losing my work after logging in, but i figured out you can open the Scratchpad containing your old work by hitting the Settings icon on the top right and selecting âScratch Padâ.
