I want to set a Bearer Token
in postman
For some reason my Postman doesn\'t have the Bearer Token
option in the Auth dropdown
I faced this problem a long time ago. And I solved this problem by installing the Desktop version and again login with Google account. After that Bearer Token visible in postman!
In my case, I used Windows 8.1 and 64 bit.
here you can get the desktop version
I'm not sure if those 2 images are from the same Postman application or not but the Bearer Token feature only came in on version 5.3.0.
You can just manually add an Authorization
Request Header with a Bearer <my_token>
value.
This is just a dummy value for demo purposes - The actual value should be Bearer + your token value
.
That should work without the need to use that option from the drop down list. This would only just replicate automatically, what you would be doing manually anyway.
I am using Postman v7.0.9.
Add accessToken variable to postman environmental variable.
Then use Tests tab to write javascript.
let jsonData = pm.response.json();
let token = jsonData.accessToken;
pm.environment.set('accessToken', token);
If you are usign the current version "Bearer Token" type is under Authorization tab.
You have a some options to add authorization type:
1) Go headers tap and add => key: Authorization value:Bearer
2) Create collection > select authorization
3) click code and add headers
headers:
{
'Postman-Token': '55..',
'cache-control': 'no-cache',
'Authorization': 'Bearer eyJhbG...'
}
