How to stop making my collection public

This article helps you achieve one of the following options:

Unpublish collection

To perform this action, you need to have Editor access to the collection to unpublish it. If you do not have Editor access to the collection, refer to our Sensitive Data Removal Policy.

Go to the workspace where the collection was published.

Note: Use the search bar to find out where the collection to unpublish is located.

Go to the collection you want to unpublish.
Select View complete collection documentation at the bottom of the documentation tab on the right panel .
Select on Published > Edit published documentation > Unpublish .

If you have already deleted the associated collection, the documentation is also deleted. Accessing the documentation URL will return a 404 error, indicating that it no longer exists.

Change the visibility of a public workspace

To perform this action, you need Admin access to that workspace. If you don’t, refer to our Sensitive Data Removal Policy.

Go to the Settings of the public workspace you want to remove public access.
Click on Change from the “Workspace type” and select Internal > Save Changes .

If you are on a Postman Professional or Enterprise plan, you need the Community Manager’s approval to change the workspace visibility to Public.

Remove a public link to a collection

Navigate to Manage collection access keys and hit Delete to perform the deletion.

If you have already deleted the collection, you can delete a public link from your collections in your Postman dashboard by selecting Trash next to the link you want to delete.
