Although this video is fine for people familiar with TR in an administration capacity. An average tester would find it confusing. Lucky it works for me 😁👍

Good video to explain the general basics. Unfortunately the video ends where it starts to get exciting for beginners...

Just to name a few points that might be interesting for users who’ve barely worked with postman:

- How to upload an attachment and add it to the result?

- How to work with parameters? Or with offsets when the results in the responses become too large?

- Is there anything to consider when using Multi Factor Authentication in TestRail or does using the API Key make the 2FA irrelevant?

Would be also cool to see how to update this Add Result request body automatically depends on actual tests run
