Testing the Webservice with Postman

Postman is a powerful collaboration platform that simplifies the process of developing, testing, documenting, and sharing APIs (Application Programming Interfaces) by providing a user-friendly interface and a comprehensive set of tools.

Some example collections of Postman requests on PrestaShop Webservice are available on our repository.

Install Postman

Postman is available on Linux, MacOS and Windows. Please follow instructions here.

How to use these examples

Clone the repository

First, clone the example repository locally:

git clone [email protected]:PrestaShop/webservice-postman-examples.git

Import a collection

Open Postman, and choose “File > Import”. Then navigate to the cloned repository, and import a JSON collection.

The collection will be available in the sidebar:
