Postman API Testing

Postman API Testing

Dengage allows you to generate sample API requests for all of our endpoints via  Postman . This reference article covers the Dengage Rest API Testing, what it is, how to set up and as well as how to edit and send requests.

What is Postman?

Postman is a free-to-use visual editing tool for building and testing API requests. As opposed to other methods for interacting with APIs (e.g. using cURL), Postman allows you to easily edit API requests, view header information and much more. Postman has the ability for you to save Collections or libraries of sample pre-made API requests. In order to make it easy for our customers to get up and running with our REST API, we created a Collection with pre-made examples for all of our API endpoints.

Using Dengage Rest API.

To send an API requests to dengage Rest API you should have your IP whitelisted. To whitelist your IP you can send an email to tech@dengage.com.
