BigPanda

Integrations are available on Postman Team, Business, and Enterprise plans.

BigPanda is an IT systems management platform that aggregates and correlates IT alerts to create high-level IT incidents. It directs all alerts to a single place with different connected services.

Setting up a BigPanda integration requires you to get an API key and configure Postman monitors.

After you set up the integration, you can view real-time alerts based on the results of your Postman monitors.

Retrieving the BigPanda API key

1. Log in to your BigPanda account and select "Integrations" in the header toolbar, then select New Integration.

2. Select "Alerts REST API" and then select the Integrate.

   

3. To generate the App key, enter a name for the integration and select the Generate App Key.

   

   The generated App Key displays.

   

4. Save the generated App key and the API key for use later.
