Maintaining Secrets as part of your Postman Variables!!
Masking the values of the variables
Hello People,
How are you all doing? I thought of writing a small article with one of the small features added to Postman, it looks small but its powerful and useful feature.
If you are new to the concept of variables, kindly read this blog post before proceeding here.
If you are already a Postman user and doing more demos using your Postman app, then this is definitely for you.
Based on your project requirements, you can select and use any variable. But we have an option for setting the variable type as default/secret for both Global and Environment variables. Still the option is not provided for collection variables.
So how do you do?
While creating your variables, you have an option to mark that as “default”/”secret”. By doing so, the application will mask the values and when you are sharing your screen now it will be much easier.
Here is how we do it:
Step 1:
Login and open your workspace
Step 2:
Navigate to your respective collection
