Since a while every time I start postman I have to login. I get the message that the session is expired.
Any idea?
I deleted these folders and the issue seems to be solved. I will observe the next days and provide feedback.
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Postman*
C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Postman
Hey @klodoma ![]()
Appreciate you raising this and confirming that it’s solved. ![]()
Please do let us know if you have similar issues in the future.
From first answer - delete files in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Postman solved this.
From second answer (which I tried first), clearing site data didn’t solve this.
Did this. Didn’t solve it for me. Experiencing this since my update to Tahoe.
Hey @waldgeist / @adrian-bathurst ![]()

Would you be able to share a little more context about your individual situations, please?
Are you both experiencing the app session expiring when you open it up after previous logging in?
As per my reply, deleting files in C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Postman solved this.
Before, my issue was - launch Postman and log in, close it shortly afterwards, re-launch Postman again, it would say the session had expired and that I had to re-login. This happened on every launch of Postman. After deleting the files mentioned, it’s working fine and hasn’t asked for a re-login since.
Is Postman team aware of this issue?
I’m don’t feel comfortable deleting whole profile folder. I would be much happier if Postman would release update with a proper fix.
Same on macOS Tahoe
Version 11.82.2
UI Version: 11.82.2-ui-260127-0248
Desktop Platform Version: 11.82.1 (11.82.1)
We’re currently investigating the issue and working on a fix, once I have the timeline for the release I will update the thread.
I personally wouldn’t recommend deleting those files as it potentially might have knock on effects in other parts of your Postman instance and could lead to data loss.
Ran into something similar on Ubuntu (snap version of Postman).
Initially, it kept asking me to log in every time I opened the app. I tried clearing site data from DevTools as per the suggestion above, and after that I couldn’t log in at all, and it just got stuck.
What fixed it for me was clearing Postman’s snap config:
Snap apps store data here:
~/snap/postman/
Remove the config file
rm -rf ~/snap/postman/current/.config/Postman
Then just restart Postman:
snap run postman
After that login worked normally again.
