# Explore your Postman Private API Network **[Your Private API Network is available with Postman Enterprise plans. Viewing APIs on your Private API Network requires the API Builder add-on.](https://www.postman.com/pricing/)** As a member of your team, you can search for and discover workspaces and collections on your team's Private API Network. Open an element to view details about it and take additional actions, such as share a workspace or fork a collection. If your team has [the API Builder add-on](https://www.postman.com/pricing/), team members can also search for and discover APIs on your team's Private API Network. ## Explore your Private API Network You can use your team's Private API Network to learn about workspaces, collections, and APIs shared within your team. In the left sidebar, you can browse a directory of elements shared within your team. There are several ways to access your team's Private API Network: * Click **Home** from the Postman header, then click **Private API Network** in your team information on the left sidebar. * Click **Search Postman** in the header, [change the scope](#search-for-elements), click the **Workspace type** dropdown list under the search bar and click **Internal**, click the **Element type** dropdown list and click **API**. ## Search, filter, and sort There are several ways to search, filter, and sort elements and folders in your Private API Network. You can click Home icon **Home** to sort popular elements. You can click **Search Postman** in the header to enter search terms and filter the results. You can also click a folder to sort elements in it. ### Discover popular and new elements You can click Home icon **Home** in the left sidebar to discover popular and new elements. On the right, you can sort popular elements by **Week** or **Month**. You can also review elements that were recently added. Click **Show more** to review more elements in either category. Private API Network discover elements API Network Managers who set up your Private API Network might see a list of suggested elements on the right. Postman suggests adding these elements because they're popular within your team, meaning your team might benefit from having them in your Private API Network. To add a suggested element, click **Add**. Private API Network suggested elements ### Search for elements You can search for internal APIs in your [Private API Network](/docs/collaborating-in-postman/private-api-network/overview/) using the **Private API Network** filter. A checkmark next to the results indicates they're trusted internal APIs that are approved for use. If you're in your team's Private API Network, the scope is automatically set to **Private API Network**. You can also specify the element you'd like to search for: **Workspaces**, **Collections**, **Requests**, **APIs**, or **Folders** from the **Element type** dropdown list. To learn more about searching in Postman, see [Search Postman](/docs/getting-started/basics/navigating-postman/#search-postman). Then you can filter elements with the following options: * To filter by element type, click the **Element type** dropdown list, then click **Workspaces**, **Collections**, **APIs**, **Request**, or **Folder**. * To narrow down results, use the additional filters: * **In** --- Search across workspaces and collections in your team. * **By** --- Filter results by creator name. * **Tag** --- Search using standard and status tags. Available only with [Postman Enterprise plans](https://www.postman.com/pricing/). Learn more about adding tags to [collections](/docs/collections/use-collections/collaborate-with-collections/#tag-a-collection), [APIs](/docs/design-apis/api-builder/managing-apis/#tagging-apis), and [workspaces](/docs/collaborating-in-postman/using-workspaces/internal-workspaces/use-workspaces/#tag-a-workspace). * To filter by an element's location in a folder in the left sidebar, click **Location**, then click the folder or subfolder. When you filter by a folder, your search results return elements in the folder and its subfolders. To filter by all elements, including elements not organized in folders, don't filter by an element's location. ![Filter and search your Private API Network](https://assets.postman.com/postman-docs/v10/private-api-network-search-and-filter-v10-2.jpg) ### Sort elements in a folder You can sort elements in a folder and its subfolders. To sort elements, click a folder or subfolder in the left sidebar, then click the **Sort by** dropdown list. The options are: * **Recently added** - Sort elements by the date they were added. * **A to Z** - Sort elements alphabetically. * **Trending this week** - Sort elements by your team's usage this week. * **Trending this month** - Sort elements by your team's usage this month.

You can view the following details: * For workspaces, you can view all of the collections and APIs inside them. * For collections, you can view available documentation. In the documentation, you can click **Try Request** next to a request or **Try Example** next to an example to open it in a new tab. To learn more about trying an example, see [Try an example](/docs/sending-requests/response-data/examples/#try-an-example). * For APIs, you can view API definitions and associated API documentation. You can also view collections added to the API. If you [published an API](/docs/collaborating-in-postman/private-api-network/organizing-private-network/#publish-specific-api-versions) with an API definition that has syntax errors, your API documentation might not display as expected. To learn more about viewing syntax errors, see [Viewing syntax errors in your API definition](/docs/design-apis/api-builder/develop-apis/validating-elements-against-schema/#viewing-syntax-errors-in-your-api-definition). You can also open the element in its workspace.
