Welcome to the new Postman Community site! I am Abhinav, the founder, CEO and the original creator of Postman. Postman is now built by an amazing team spread across two offices - Bangalore and San Francisco.
Postman has grown like crazy in a very short time with more than 4 million users across the globe. We realized that there is a huge community out there that will benefit from interacting with each other - both offline and online.
We believe there are many Postman enthusiasts out there who want to share their knowledge and help others. With this forum, we want to encourage connections between community members. We want conversation to flow freely while also being structured so that nobody gets lost.
We have been using Slack for managing this but unfortunately it doesn’t scale well. While Slack is great for internal team collaboration - we are paying customers - it is not designed for communities. Messaging gets quickly lost in a real-time stream. There is no context for discussions. We saw questions were left unanswered or asked over and over again. We were losing the collective knowledge of the community. I remember using forums much before Facebook and Twitter evolved. It was a lot of fun and I built some really amazing relationships - some of which last to this day. I hope that this helps you build some too.
Getting started here is super easy thanks to the integration with your Postman account. You can sign in with your Postman account on the top right instead of waiting for a Slack invite.
Excited? We are looking forward to building this together with you.
hello everyone my name is Abdulquddus Ibrahim a final year student of Information technology and also the GDGOC Organizer Federal University Dutse, am gld to be here
Thank you for the warm welcome! Excited to be here and connect with like-minded developers and API enthusiasts.
A little about me—I’m Hrudu Shibu, a System Administrator passionate about cloud, AI, security, development, and automation. I love exploring API workflows, optimizing infrastructure, and sharing knowledge.
Looking forward to learning, sharing, and engaging with the community. See you all around!
It felt strange that I didn’t have an intro posted here so here’s mine
My path to working with APIs wasn’t exactly traditional - I spent 11 years in the British Army Infantry before randomly diving into the world of Software Testing.
Postman quickly became my go-to tool, and after using it in the trenches of real-world testing in cross functional development teams, I found myself sharing what I learned with anyone who’d listen.
That passion for helping others only grew when I joined Postman 6 years ago, It gave me the chance to support the Community from the inside. I was given support when I first started, and now I’m always looking to pay it forward by helping others.
Whether you’re just starting out or deep into API testing, I’m here to share, support, and help you get the most out of Postman!
I know starting an introduction from scratch can be tough, so feel free to use these questions as a guide:
Where are you from, and what’s something unique or interesting about your background?
What brings you to the Postman Community, and how do you use Postman in your projects?
What do you hope to learn or contribute as part of this Community?
I’m really please to share with this community, and learn from all of you.
In my experience with APIs as a tester, QA automation and developer, this is the tool that has help me the most and that I really enjoy to use. I have a lot to learn and features to explore (I just read the Monthly drop and is amazing!!).
My gratitude from Medellín - Colombia to the Postman Team.
