Hi All I am busy investigating adding documentation to our project constituting 15 services all part of a larger micro-service and 100+ endpoints. Which for us this is very large 😁. I see that Postman allows you to create documentation from your collection which imports all the examples and descriptions both for the request and body parameters. This would be a great help for us as a lot of that is already done in the app. My question is, from the exported documentation, can one make an API call as done in swagger documentation or would one have to go through the postman app? Based off the following [YouTube tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ayo_KdLLcTA) by Postman it does not seem possible, but is a feature we really need. As this will be used by help-desk personal outside of our organisation and having them download and install the app is a hard dependancy that we would very much like to avoid. To do the documentation in Swagger would just take too much time and resources at the moment and is something that we would like to avoid as much as possible! Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated. Regards, ---

Hi @vectra_mobile Welcome to the community 👋 Yes, currently API calls can only be done from the app. But we do have a feature request on similar lines: > > > \## App Details: > \`\`\` > Postman for Mac > Version 5.3.2 > OS X 10.12.6 > \`\`\` > I'm try…ing to convince my organization to adopt postman, but one of the biggest features they are looking for is ability for developers to edit and test requests inside api docs. Postman creates great docs and even generates code in various languages. However, it does not allow the user to modify requests in the docs and test responses, a feature that is currently available on many other API documentation platforms. Is it on the pipeline, and if so when are you expecting to get it out to users? > > I understand that one could go easily copy the code snippets to their environment or go into postman to modify and test requests, but that adds a layer of unwanted friction. Also opinionated, I think this feature is something users would greatly appreciate and it would make their documentation much more powerful and complete. > > Personally love postman, still. Please add any additional comments on the thread that might help our engineering team to consider the same. In any case, you are free to [submit a new feature request](https://github.com/postmanlabs/postman-app-support/issues/new?template=Feature_request.md) for this - thank you in advance for the inputs : ) ---
