COVID-19 Vaccines in India: How to Build an API-based Vaccine Locator
Blog post from Postman
The Co-Win portal is an essential tool for Indians to register and schedule COVID-19 vaccinations, and due to high demand, slots fill quickly, prompting efforts to automate vaccine availability alerts. Postman professionals utilized the Postman Collection Runner to receive alerts for vaccine availability, leading to successful vaccinations. To aid others, they created a public workspace with Postman Collections, monitors, and APIs, allowing users to configure alerts based on parameters such as age, vaccine type, and doses required. These alerts can be configured through various methods, including Postman Collection Runner, Newman CLI, and Postman Monitors, and can notify through Slack and Telegram by setting up webhooks or bots. Testing and customization of alerts are supported by a mock server created with the Co-Win API's OpenAPI definition, enabling users to test workflows without live server dependencies. Contributions to the COVID-19 Vaccine Locator India workspace are encouraged, inviting users to add new collections, alerts, and visualizations, fostering collaboration to enhance the efficiency of vaccination scheduling and inspire the development of other automated solutions.
