How to export specific request to file using postman

Question

I want to export one specific request from postman extension  chromium  and send it to another developer so that they can import it  How I can do this

User · Answer

There is no direct option to export a single request from Postman.

You can create and export collections. Here is a link to help with that.

Regarding the single request thing, you can try a workaround. I tried with the RAW body parameters and it worked.

What you can do is,

In your request tab, click on the 3 dots in the top right corner of your request panel/box.
Select Code. This will open Generate Code Snippents window.
Copy the cURL code and save it in a text file. Share this with who you want to.
They can then import the request from the text file.

The workaround is to export the collection as explained in other answers or references  This will export all requests in that collection to JSON file  Then edit the JSON file to remove the requests you do not want using any editor  this is very simple  Look for  quot item quot  collection in file  This contains all your requests  one in each item  Remove the items you do not want to keep  If you import this edited file in Postman where original collection already exists  Postman will ask you if you want to replace it or create a copy  If you want to avoid this  you may consider changing  quot  postman id quot  and  quot name quot  under  quot info quot   If original collection will not exist while importing edited collection  then this change is not needed
