Intro to Postman Part 1: sending a request

Part 1 (of 6): Sending a Request with Postman

In this video, you will learn the basics of Postman and create your first request.

Postman Collection
------------------

Troubleshooting
---------------
(e.g. Error: Could not get any response)

See if you can open the GET request with a regular browser (like Chrome or Firefox). Recheck the URL to make sure it is valid.

If you are within a corporate network, check with your Network Administrator.

The "get" url for gethub in the training was working for me a couple of weeks ago but is no longer returning anything other than two brackets [ ]. Without making any changes i go into Postman and try to re-run what had worked a couple of weeks ago with no results returned. I tried both sf and new york and neither return anything. I get status 200 OK . Any thoughts on something to try?

I think the page is now deprecated. Another example would do. The example in this case is not not useful. The github jobs page has changed.

Awesome tutorial. I went from never having used Postman to receiving the results of my first request in under 5 minutes!

github jobs is deprecated and no longer available. Could you update the video using another example? Thank you.

Thank you! This is so helpful. I just started with Postman and went through several videos and this is the first one that started to make sense to me.

Thank you, team. I have a question how does attribute come into play when doing an OAuth application onboarding?

[ravitejam]

Hi. If a website is having a component based model then can we still use Postman in any way to obtain a response.

[Moronical]

Very simple and easy to follow, thank you.

When I sign in that is not the page I get to. I have been looking for this page but it seams like a well kept secret that no one wants to tell you. It would be nice is someone in all these videos i have looked at that start in this page would tell me how to get to this page. yes...that would be very nice...so can someone please tell me how to get to this page!?
