Publish your public APIs to the Postman API Network

Once you’ve prepared your public workspace, prepared your public collections, curated them, and prepared your team workspace for team collaboration, you’re ready to publish your public APIs.

Evaluate the developer experience

Before you make your workspace public, and begin to share and promote your public APIs, walk yourself through the steps you outlined in your overview collection. Invite others on your team to do the same.

If you haven’t already, create a team workspace and fork your public collections. Even if you decide to use one workspace to manage your public APIs, the exercise will walk you through your API consumer’s steps.

Gather feedback and iterate to curate your public collections. Continue to iterate until you’re satisfied you can get your new users to their first 200 OK response in the fewest steps possible.

Make your workspace public

To make your workspace public, do the following:

1. Open your public workspace.
2. In the left sidebar, click Options > Workspace overview.
3. Open the Settings tab.
4. Under Workspace type, click Change.
5. Click Public.
6. If you’re prompted to submit a request, optionally add a note and click Submit Request.
7. Otherwise, click Save Changes.

Your public workspace and its collections are available on the Postman API Network.
