How to Setup and Configure Postman

When working with Postman and our APIs, it’s important to know that Postman sends it’s own cookies which can lead to sessions getting lost.

A workaround to avoid this is to disable cookies, or set this configuration in Postman:

  1. Go to Manage Cookies


2. Click Whilelist Domains

 

3. Add domain. This can be Localhost, staging, etc (depending the environment you want to test).

4. And in the POST oauth/token request, add the following code…

pm.cookies.jar().unset(pm.environment.get("pos_url"),'connect.sid');

… as pictured below.

This is done to get the postman working on different environments. You will need to whitelist all the different environments, you will be using in Postman (for example, “posapi-mi.flexiti.fi” - without http:// or https://)
