Generate an MCP server with public APIs from the Postman API Network

With Postman’s MCP Generator, you choose public API requests from the Postman API Network, and Postman generates a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for you. For each request, Postman creates a tool. The server supports the MCP standard input and output (STDIO) and streamable HTTP transport layers.

Generate and download an MCP server

To generate an MCP server, do the following:

1. From the Home menu, click Public API Network. Then, from the left sidebar, click MCP Generator.
2. Search for a public API from the Postman API Network. Postman displays public workspaces and collections that match your search criteria.
3. Choose one of the public workspaces.
4. Click through the workspace’s collections and folders and select the requests you want to add to your MCP server.
5. Click Add Requests.
6. (Optional) Search again and add requests from other public workspaces.
7. Click Generate. Postman generates an MCP server and zips it for you.
8. Click Download ZIP and follow the onscreen instructions.

You’re ready to set up and start your generated MCP server locally.
