Monitors run a collection on a schedule via POST /monitors, so a failure can get noticed at any hour, and POST /monitors/{monitorId}/run runs a monitor immediately. GET /collections/{collectionId}/runs/{runId} shows which requests and tests failed in a past run. POST /sdks generates an SDK from a collection or specification. Postman says more than 35 million developers use the platform, which is freemium with self-serve signup. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### How do I schedule a Postman collection to run automatically on a recurring basis? Use the Postman API's POST /monitors endpoint to schedule a collection to run on a recurring monitor. You can also trigger an immediate run with POST /monitors/{monitorId}/run, update the schedule with PUT /monitors/{monitorId}, list existing monitors with GET /monitors, or remove one with DELETE /monitors/{monitorId}. _Teams automating API reliability checks can track tooling like this via daily.dev._ ### How can I generate a client library (SDK) from a Postman collection? Call POST /sdks with a collection or specification to generate a client library automatically. GET /sdks/{sdkId} shows the SDK and its build status, GET /sdks/{sdkId}/downloads provides the download link, and GET /sdks lists all SDKs in a workspace. _Developers evaluating SDK generation workflows can follow tooling updates like this on daily.dev._ ### How do I find out which requests or tests failed in a past Postman collection run? Use GET /collections/{collectionId}/runs to list past runs of a collection, then GET /collections/{collectionId}/runs/{runId} to see exactly which requests and tests failed in that specific run. This gives a historical record for answering whether an integration was working on a given date. _Engineers debugging flaky integrations can keep tabs on API tooling like this through daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [REST API Monitoring Beyond Status Codes](https://daily.dev/posts/rest-api-monitoring-beyond-status-codes-4cgbpbtn4) · SitePoint · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Observe API responses to runtime behavior: Connect Postman’s Agent Mode with Dynatrace](https://daily.dev/posts/observe-api-responses-to-runtime-behavior-connect-postman-s-agent-mode-with-dynatrace-flhecbbgz) · Dynatrace · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Postman Adds Open Source Documentation and SDK Products](https://daily.dev/posts/postman-adds-open-source-documentation-and-sdk-products-wwndgjmjk) · The New Stack · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Postman for Business Analysts: The One Tool That Makes API Discussions Easier](https://daily.dev/posts/postman-for-business-analysts-the-one-tool-that-makes-api-discussions-easier-wfqe2kcpu) · Medium · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#testing](https://daily.dev/tags/testing), [#postman](https://daily.dev/tags/postman) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/test-and-monitor-your-apis-and-generate-client-libraries-automatically-with-postman-yipc5tfu9) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Test And Monitor Your APIs And Generate Client Libraries Automatically With Postman","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/test-and-monitor-your-apis-and-generate-client-libraries-automatically-with-postman-yipc5tfu9","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/test-and-monitor-your-apis-and-generate-client-libraries-automatically-with-postman-yipc5tfu9"},"datePublished":"2026-10-31T20:24:55.751Z","dateModified":"2026-10-31T20:25:20.679Z","description":"Postman's own API lets your systems or an AI assistant set up the testing and monitoring of other APIs.
