Postman Sync
Instead of a one-off file import, you can connect your Postman account to browse your Postman cloud content and import the collections and environments you want. Linking your account doesn't sync everything automatically — you choose what to bring in, and the items you import then stay in sync with the cloud.
Connecting an account
- Go to Settings → Postman Account.
- Enter your Postman API Key. Tap Get API Key if you need to create one — it opens Postman's site where you can generate a key.
- Link the account.
Once linked, you can browse your Postman content and import what you need. Nothing is synced until you import it — linking only lets HTTPBot reach your workspaces so you can pick collections and environments to bring in:
- Collections — open the separate Postman area in Collections (kept apart from your own Collections) and tap + to choose collections from a workspace to import. Imported collections then stay in sync with Postman, re-fetching the latest version when you open them.
- Environments — use the Environments list's + menu → Import from Postman… to import specific environments. Imported ones appear alongside your Local Environments. See Environments & Variables.
Sending a request from a Postman-synced Collection requires HTTPBot Pro — see Importing for details on what's free versus Pro.
Unlinking
Unlinking your Postman account from Settings → Postman Account removes the imported collections and environments locally. Your content in Postman itself is untouched.
