Manage Partner Workspaces in Postman

Partner Workspaces are available with Postman Professional and Enterprise plans.

Workspace Admins and Partner Managers manage workspace settings, users, and roles within a Partner Workspace. Partner Leads also manage users and roles of partners in Partner Workspaces. Learn how to manage users and roles in a Partner Workspace and scale your collaboration by adding and updating Partner licenses and Partner Workspaces.

From May 2025, you can begin creating team-to-team Partner Workspaces, which ensures easier and more secure collaboration between you and your partners. Your partners can use domain capture and SSO to authenticate to your Partner Workspaces and you can track your partnerships in a new team setting called Partnerships. That means no switching between teams and more control over partnerships.

See the steps to update your Partner Workspaces to the new experience.

Manage users and roles

You can assign team and Partner Workspace roles based on the functions team members and partners require. You can assign team roles for Partner Workspace roles at the team level, and you can assign Partner Workspace roles at the workspace level and collection level. Learn more about team and Partner Workspace roles.

To learn more about collaborating as a team member or partner, see Collaborate in a Partner Workspace.

Add Partner licenses

A paid seat is consumed when a Partner is assigned at least one Editor role (at the workspace or collection level) in at least one Partner Workspace. Assigning a Partner the Workspace Viewer or Collection Viewer role doesn't consume paid seats.

To purchase more Partner licenses, contact your Postman Account Manager or contact Postman's sales team.

Your team must have available seats or Auto-Flex enabled to invite a partner as a Workspace Editor. Otherwise, the Partner will be assigned the Workspace Viewer role, giving the Partner permission to view all workspace resources. Also, your team must have available seats to assign a Partner as a Collection Editor.

Manage workspace elements

To move elements to a Partner Workspace, see Move elements to a Partner Workspace.

To remove elements from a Partner Workspace, see Remove elements from a Partner Workspace.

Edit workspace details

Workspace Admins and Partner Managers can edit Partner Workspace details. On the workspace's Overview tab, select the workspace name, summary, or description to edit it. You can add Markdown to the description. Select Save when you're done.

Manage your partnerships

API publishers invite partners using their email. When accepting the invite to collaborate, the Partner selects an existing team or creates a new one. This team is then listed on the API publisher's Partnerships page.

To collaborate within the Partner Workspace, the Partner authenticates using their team's login method: username and password, or SSO.

From the Partnerships page, Partner Managers can verify which partners use or don't use SSO to authenticate. They can also see individual partners, who access the Partner Workspace using a Postman account.

In the header, select Team > Team Settings. Then, select Partnerships.

Workspace Admins and Partner Managers can view and control whether their members of their team can accept Partner invites from other teams.

Use the As a publisher tab to view and manage the partnerships you own as a publisher. You can see all the partners invited by your team to collaborate.

The As a partner tab contains the list of the teams who have invited your team members as Partners to collaborate in their Partner Workspaces.

Team-to-team Partner Workspaces FAQ

How can I access team-to-team partnerships?

Users who want to create new team-to-team Partner Workspaces should do one of the following:

If using the Postman desktop app, update to the latest version.
Use the Postman web app, which always has the latest version.

Partners also need to access the Partner Workspace using a web browser or the latest version of the Postman app.

If you currently have Partner Workspaces and would like to migrate them, see Migrate your Partner Workspaces

How does this new feature affect my team?

All new Partner Workspaces created will be team-to-team Partner Workspaces. Your existing Partner Workspaces won't be affected, and you can continue to use them and invite new Partners. Postman can help you migrate existing Partner Workspaces, but this isn't required. If you partner with developers from another Postman team, those partnerships will become more secure and seamless if you migrate your workspaces.

Are there any pricing changes?

There are no changes to pricing. Partner Viewers are free, and Partner Editor add-ons are charged based on the Professional and Enterprise plans.

Can I convert an existing Partner Workspaces to a team-to-team Partner Workspaces?

You can convert an existing Partner Workspace to a team-to-team Partner Workspace. You'll have to remove and re-invite Partners. To complete the conversion, do the following:

Convert the Partner Workspace to an internal workspace, and that will remove the partners.
Convert the internal workspace back to a Partner Workspace.
Re-invite Partners to the workspace.

Learn more about migrating your Partner Workspaces to the new experience.

Will team-to-team Partner Workspaces support both single-partner and multi-partner configurations?

You can use a team-to-team Partner Workspace as a single or multi-partner workspace. Workspace Admins can go to the Workspace Settings page and turn on multi-partner mode, which prevents partners from seeing each other in the workspace. However, the Publisher team members can see all partners in the workspace.

How does this release with SSO make partner collaboration more secure?

In the new Partnerships page under Team > Team Settings, Postman gives you visibility into SSO-enabled Partner access. SSO-enabled Partners log in to their own company’s Postman team using SSO authentication, ensuring secure collaboration. If at any point, this Partner leaves their organization and their Postman team, they lose access to the Partner Workspace. Therefore, access to the Partner Workspace is tied to their Postman team, not the individual.

What if I need help or have questions?

For help or questions, you can use the following contacts:

If you are on an Enterprise contact your Postman Customer Success Manager.
If you are on free, Basic or Professional plans, contact Postman Support.
If you have questions or feedback on Partner Workspaces that you would like to share with the product team, you can email Partner Workspaces Support.

View resources a Partner can access

A Partner Manager can view the Partner Workspaces and collections a Partner can access. A Partner Manager can also view the Workspace role partners are assigned in each workspace, and the Collection role partners are assigned in each collection. Open your team dashboard and select View resources next to a partner. Select a Partner Workspace or collection name to open it in a new tab.

Remove elements from a Partner Workspace

You must be at least an Editor on an API, collection, or environment to remove an element from a Partner Workspace. You can also be a Workspace Admin, Partner Manager, or Super Admin to remove any element from a Partner Workspace.

To remove an element by moving it to another workspace, do the following:

Select View more actions next to the element you want to move, then select Move.
Use the search bar to find the workspace you'd like to move the element to, or use Filter by visibility.

You can only move elements to workspaces that you have access to.
Select the workspace, then select Move (Collection, API, Flow, Environment, or Mock Server).

While not recommended, you can choose to delete an element entirely. To do so, select View more actions next to the element you want to remove, then select Delete.

Deleted APIs and environments aren't recoverable. You can recover collections smaller than 30 MB for up to 90 days on an Enterprise plan. To do so, select Trash from the Postman footer.

Remove partners from a Partner Workspace

You can remove partners from individual Partner Workspaces. To remove a Partner from a Partner Workspace, see Manage workspace roles.

You can remove partners from a team. Removing a Partner from a team removes them from all Partner Workspaces. If you remove the last Admin from the team, users assigned the Partner Manager role will be assigned the Admin role. Also, if you remove a Partner from their last Partner Workspace, they'll be removed from the team. To remove a Partner from a team, see Remove team members.
