Summary

Postman provides enhanced control and visibility over API encryption, crucial for securing data during API operations through Transport Layer Security (TLS), which relies on Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificates. Developers can manage certificates in Postman by adding, editing, and removing them to troubleshoot common SSL issues. Certificates are issued per domain and can be either CA certificates, which provide higher security as they are issued by trusted authorities, or self-signed certificates. Users can upload .pem files for CA certificates or define self-signed certificates within the platform's Certificates tab, configuring domain details, certificate files, and passphrases for comprehensive SSL/TLS security management. Postman's Network information icon and support resources further assist in troubleshooting and enhancing certificate management, ensuring secure encrypted API calls.
