Since updating to version 8 of Postman, the app has been virtually unusable. My company, for reasons I won’t start ranting about, has a proxy / web gateway called Z-Scaler running which takes great delight in intercepting web traffic and generally breaking the majority of the tools that developers …

Many companies have a “no data must be saved in public cloud” policy for security reasons. If you can’t work offline in Postman and have to sync all your work into the cloud, this app is now useless for many developpers. We need a way to “not” sync our workspace into the cloud and to be able to full…

This issue is so frustrating. All my collections are saved locally, why do I have to connect to the internet to view my workspaces. I have to disconnect from the corporate vpn before being able to access my local content. Now i have to receive OTPs again, relogin to the vpn before being able to cont…

Yeah, exactly my point… Why do you prevent me from accessing the data I have locally cached on my machine? Especially because it does not stop working once it connects, it’s just a ‘internet at connection’ kind of thing… @danny-dainton any insight into what pushed Postman toward such a system? Als…

Unable to load data as you’re offline I got the same problem, is there a way roll back to v7 ? thanks

I work with the product design team at Postman, and I thought I could provide some perspective on where this feature is heading in the long run. Postman’s mission is to improve your API workflows by providing collaborative tools that…

Hi, I think you should differentiate between online/offline and collaborative/non-collaborative. Just because I don’t collaborate, does not mean I don’t need online and sync features. If I collaborate, does not mean I am not allowed to do anything if I’m offline. If I do want to collaborate with o…

So the “offline” people only get one workspace - the scratchpad… Meaning that they have to lump many unrelated APIs into a single workspace and can no longer organize them in a sensible way. I fail to see how that improves my API workflow, which was already great in 7.x but pretty poor in 8.x. I am…

Hello, I am also facing the same issue with the postman. I also tried with scratchpad mode but once I get there it open and then black screen appears. It was working fine day before and since yesterday evening says…offline… So all this days is it online or any other issue
