Backup Postman Configuration to File - Environment and Settings

How do you backup all the configuration including environments, globals and collections to a file?

2 Answers

Download all data (including collections, globals, etc.)

Export using the Postman application:

Settings -> Data tab -> Export Data -> Download

Download collections

Download each collection from the Postman application: Click on the triple dots and select Export


Backup integrations

You can set up an auto integration to back up your collections (to Github, etc.):

Login into the website and select your workspace, then go under the integrations tab and add API integration.

If you want to set up integrations to other software (e.g. Bitbucket) that isn't available, you can achieve by using the custom webhook. For more details, you can read this official blog post.

I found this answer for my question - although it didn't answer the original question over there.

Basically you can create a .json export file like this:

Settings -> Data tab -> Export Data -> Download
