Summary

Postman utilizes a role-based access control (RBAC) system where users are assigned roles that grant specific permissions on various resources like teams, workspaces, and collections. Roles such as Admin, Billing, Developer, and Community Manager are designated at the team level, while more granular roles like Admin and Collaborator apply to specific workspaces. To streamline access management, Postman has introduced a groups feature on its Enterprise plan, allowing admins to organize team members into functional groups that reflect organizational structures. This feature simplifies the process by enabling role assignments directly to groups rather than individual users, automatically granting access to all group members and reducing administrative overhead. For instance, an intern group can be created to ensure new interns gain the necessary access to relevant resources without individual assignments. Admins can manage groups through the "Groups" tab on the Manage Team page, where they can create or delete groups, manage memberships, and assign roles, making access control more efficient and scalable.
