Duplicating and Sharing Requests
Duplicating a Request
Duplicating a request creates an exact copy of an existing request, allowing you to quickly create a variation - such as testing a different parameter - without building the request from scratch.
Steps to Duplicate a Request
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1. Right-click the Request | Opens a context menu with available options |
| 2. Select Duplicate | Creates a copy of the request in the same location |
| 3. Rename if Needed | Update the name to distinguish it from the original |
Sharing Requests
Postman allows requests, folders, or entire collections to be shared with team members via a shared workspace, an exported file, or a generated link, making collaboration on API development straightforward.
Best Practices for Sharing
Adding clear descriptions, using consistent naming conventions, and organizing shared requests into well-labeled collections helps team members quickly understand and reuse each other's work.
With these foundations - from installation to organizing and sharing requests - you now have the core skills needed to work confidently and efficiently in Postman.
