Summary

Postman has introduced Postman Echo, a new service designed to help users understand and analyze the HTTP requests they send. While Postman previously relied on HTTPBin and its own fork, PostmanBin, Postman Echo was built from scratch to better support the wide variety of HTTP requests that can be issued via Postman. It features more than 20 endpoints, supporting various authentication methods like Basic Auth, OAuth 1.0, Digest Auth, and OAuth 2.0. Each HTTP call in Postman Echo is thoroughly documented, providing detailed explanations of request types and offering insights into the underlying technology of HTTP requests. The service's documentation is accessible at echo.getpostman.com, and users can easily add the Postman Echo collection to their local Postman setup with a single click, enabling immediate experimentation with the available endpoints. Postman plans to release further updates and information about this functionality on their blog.
