## About

Postman's official MCP server connects AI assistants to Postman workspaces, collections, environments and API specifications. Remote endpoints offer minimal, code-generation and full (100+ tools) configurations with OAuth; a local npx server uses a Postman API key. EU endpoints are available with API key auth.

## Install

1. **Connect it in ChatGPT** Turn on Developer mode in ChatGPT (Settings → Security and login), open Plugins, select + and paste https://mcp.postman.com/minimal as the MCP server URL, then sign in with OAuth. Add it to a chat from the composer's tools menu.

2. **Or add it to Codex or the API**

   Codex CLI:

   ```bash
   codex mcp add postman --url https://mcp.postman.com/minimal
   codex mcp login postman
   ```

   config.toml:

   ```toml
   [mcp_servers.postman]
   url = "https://mcp.postman.com/minimal"
   ```

   Responses API:

   ```python
   import os
   from openai import OpenAI
   
   client = OpenAI()
   
   response = client.responses.create(
       model="gpt-6-astra",
       tools=[{
           "type": "mcp",
           "server_label": "postman",
           "server_url": "https://mcp.postman.com/minimal",
           "authorization": os.environ["POSTMAN_API_KEY"],
           "require_approval": "never",
       }],
       input="List the collections in my team workspace",
   )
   print(response.output_text)
   ```
