What the publisher says
From the Postman MCP Server repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
Postman MCP Server
The Postman MCP Server implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to connect AI agents and coding assistants — including Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code Copilot, GitHub Copilot CLI, and Gemini CLI — directly to your Postman workspaces, collections, specifications, and environments.
Postman also offers the server as an npm package.
For the full installation guide with agent-specific setup, see Postman's MCP Server product page.
Postman MCP Server collection
The Postman MCP Server collection is the quickest way to explore, test, and connect to the Postman MCP Server. Use it to:
- Browse the complete list of available tools across all configurations.
- Connect to and test the remote server — Full and Minimal.
- Connect to and test the local server.
Tool configurations
- Minimal — (Default) Only includes essential tools for basic Postman operations. Ideal for users who want to modify a single Postman element, such as collections, workspaces, or environments.
- Code — Includes tools to generate high-quality, well-organized client code from public and internal API definitions. Ideal for users who need to consume APIs or get API context to their agents.
- Full — Includes all available Postman API tools (100+ tools). Ideal for users who engage in advanced collaboration and Postman's Enterprise features.
- Learn — Searches Postman Docs for guides, tutorials, and reference content. Ideal for agents who need to discover Postman features, look up API concepts, or find learning resources.
Authentication
For the best developer experience and fastest setup, use OAuth on the remote server (https://mcp.postman.com). OAuth is fully compliant with the MCP Authorization specification and requires no manual API key configuration.
The EU remote server and the local server support only Postman API key authentication.
Quick start
Remote (any OAuth-compatible MCP host):
Add this URL to your MCP host's configuration:
https://mcp.postman.com/minimalChange /minimal to /code or /mcp for Code or Full mode. For EU or API key auth, pass Authorization: Bearer as a header.
Local:
npx @postman/postman-mcp-serverAdd --code or --full for Code or Full mode. Set POSTMANAPIKEY as an environment variable.
For IDE-specific setup instructions, see the following table. For more information, see the Postman MCP Server docs.
