The Request block
The Request block is one type of trigger block required to create a deployable flow that runs in the Postman cloud. The Request block takes request data sent to a flow’s URL and routes the data through its Headers, Params, and Body output ports. The only way to add a Request block to a flow is to change the Start block’s trigger to Request.
The Request block can’t be deleted.
Prior to a flow being deployed to the cloud, the Request block gets values for headers, parameters, and the request body from scenarios. By running different scenarios, you can test how your flow will behave once it’s running in the cloud. Testing with scenarios is necessary because the flow won’t have a URL until you deploy it to the cloud.
The Request block can ingest input data of up to 5 megabytes if you’re on a paid Postman plan, or 1 megabyte if you’re on the Postman Free plan.
Outputs
- Headers - Sends the request headers.
- Params - Sends the request’s query parameters.
- Body - Sends the request body.
