Depending on the API you wish to test, there are 2 sets of credentials you may need.
You'll need these credentials for testing the HTTP API and the SOAP API.
Copy your username and password values.
Save them into your Postman Environment variables AccountUsername and AccountPassword respectively.
You'll need these credentials for testing the REST API and the OTP API.
Copy your Key and Secret values.
Save them into your Postman Environment variables RestApiKey and RestApiSecret respectively.
You should now have all the environment variables set and ready to test.
Note there are 2 environment variables populated dynamically via Postman pre-request/post-response scripts.
These will handle API authentication for you, and you won't need to manually place authentication tokens into each request.
authorization - This is used in the REST API and OTP API
SoapApiTicket - This is used in the SOAP API
Ensure the environment is selected in your Postman App.
Each request will need to be populated with the relevant information. Find out more about each parameter in the API docs
