Import Postman data

To import data, do the following:

1. ClickImport at the top of the sidebar.

2. Choose how you’d like to import your data:

   • cURL - Enter your curl command. The Postman VS Code extension opens the request in a new tab. Make sure to save the request to a collection.

     You canconvert a Postman request to a curl command and import it using the curl command.

   • File - Select collection or environment files. If you’re importing a single file, the VS Code extension imports it after you select it.

   • Folder - Select a folder that has multiple collection or environment files.

   • .env files - The VS Code extension detects.env files in your API project that haven’t been imported into Postman. When you select this option, Postman checks for new.env files that you haven’t imported yet. You’ll receive an in-app notification if no new files are detected.
