In this video, we are going to talk about prerequisites five, which is the postman.
We are going to install postman for testing and managing our APIs, exposing from API Gateway or exposing
from the HTTPS and points from the lambda functions.
In order to install the postman, we should go to the postman dot com.
Please open the website postman dot com and click the operating system that you have using.
I'm using the windows so after that you can download these postman and install your computer.
After successfully install the postman, you should see these postman application windows application
on your computer and we are going to use postman to send receive HTTP methods response from the postman
to our service applications.
So basically we can send request and get response from the postman, but we also use some good features
of Postman.
We will create Postman collection for our APIs and we will manage URLs with environment variables and
so on.
So if you deploy test or other environments, it will very easy to manage endpoints in the postman and
we will use postman when creating our hands on labs or some of the hands on labs, including the crud
microservices that need to expose all HTTP methods.
And we will invoke these methods with using the postman.
