Get started with beginner Flows tutorials

If you're new to Postman Flows, these tutorials will familiarize you with the Flows interface and prepare you to build more complex, API-first workflows.

You'll also learn beginner concepts, such as how to send an API request, solve a mathematical problem, and work with loops.

Build a Flow that sends an API request

You can use a Flow to send any request available to you in Postman.

If you're new to Flows and want to better understand the Flows interface, this tutorial is for you.

To learn more, see Send a request with the Send Request block.

Build a Flow that calculates the years since a milestone

You can build a Flow that solves a mathematical problem, such as calculating the number of customers in your database or the time since you last sent them an email.

This tutorial will prepare you to solve such problems with an example that calculate the years since an important date.

To learn more, see Calculate the years since a milestone.

Get familiar with Flows and count-based loops

Loops are an efficient way to complete repetitive tasks. For example, if you want to generate a random number, you can use a count-based loop to generate three or 100 random numbers.

This tutorial will teach you how count-based loops work in Flows.

To learn more, see Create a count-based loop with the Repeat block.

Get familiar with Flows and list-based loops

List-based loops let you iterate over a list to complete repetitive tasks. For example, you can take a list of customer orders and group them by purchase amount.

This tutorial will teach you how list-based loops work in Flows.

To learn more, see Create a list-based loop with the For block.
