Postman provides tools to help you manage your team's usage of Postman Flows. You consume credits each time you run a flow, at the rate of one credit per action block (like Send Request) or decision block (like If). Create with AI blocks consume a variable number of credits depending on how the block is configured and your Postman plan. The Free, Basic, and Professional plans include a number of monthly credits.
You can use the Resource usage dashboard to track the number of credits that have been consumed against your plan's monthly usage limit. If you're on the Professional plan, you can also enable overages if needed.
Only team members with Postman Flows access can create and edit flows.
To learn more about the resources included with your Postman plan and what happens when you reach your usage limits, go to About resource usage.
The maximum number of credits your flows can consume each month depends on your Postman plan. To check your team's current flows usage, select Team > Resource Usage to open the Resource Usage dashboard.
When you reach your monthly usage limit, your flows will complete their current runs. Then they'll be suspended until the next billing cycle, or until overages are enabled. Any webhooks that trigger the flows will result in a 429 Too many requests
status code.
All blocks except the Create with AI block consume one credit each time they're triggered during a flow's run. The Create with AI block consumes multiple credits each time it runs or tests a prompt. The number of credits consumed depends on your Postman plan and which AI model the block is configured to use, shown in this table:
Model | Free, Basic, and Professional plans |
---|---|
GPT-4o | 2 credits |
GPT-4o mini | 15 credits |
GPT-4 | 25 credits |
GPT-3.5 | 5 credits |
The number of credits consumed by AI models is subject to change, although Postman will notify you in advance of any such change.
The Create with AI block uses DALL·E 3 to generate images. The number of credits consumed per image in each plan is shown in this table:
Model | Free plan | Basic and Professional plans |
---|---|---|
DALL·E 3 | 10 credits | 5 credits |
With a Free or Basic Postman plan, once you've reached your monthly usage limit, your flows are automatically paused for the remainder of the billing period. To continue to use Postman Flows for the remainder of the billing period, upgrade your Postman plan.
With a Professional plan, you can enable flows overages. With it enabled, you are charged and credited 1,000 credits each time you exceed your previous allotment.
Flows overages are deactivated by default for Professional Postman plans. To enable overages, select Team > Resource Usage to open the Resource Usage dashboard, and then turn on Pay-as-you-go under Flows Usage.
