# OpenAPI to Postman
Convert an OpenAPI file into a Postman collection [v2.1](https://schema.postman.com/collection/json/v2.1.0/draft-07/collection.json).
[](https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/gcatanese/openapi-postman/tree/main)
Web application that generates a Postman collection (in JSON format) from an OpenAPI file.
You can paste the content of the OpenAPI file or enter the URL.
Made with ❤️, [OpenAPI Generator](https://github.com/OpenAPITools/openapi-generator) and [Vaadin](https://vaadin.com/).
## Run locally
```
git clone https://github.com/gcatanese/openapi-postman.git
cd openapi-postman
./mvnw spring-boot:run
```
## Why
Importing OpenAPI files is supported by Postman but this is a lot better because:
* convert path variables into Postman variables
* convert placeholders (i.e. `{{MY_VAR}}`) into Postman variables
* create a Postman request for each OpenAPI (request) example: multiple examples generates different requests for the same endpoint
* define the authorisation method (basic auth, API key)
* create a Postman variable for the API key
