CREATE, JOIN, AND MANAGE TEAMS IN POSTMAN
> Postman Free lets teams of up to three work together at no cost. To
> collaborate with more team members, features, and increased usage limits, see
> Plans and Pricing.
Postman provides a variety of tools to enable and enhance collaboration within
your team. You can ease the onboarding process by enabling team discovery,
allowing users in your organization to request to join your Postman team. You
can also create team workspaces, where team members can share their work and
collaborate on API projects. Users can discuss their work directly in Postman by
commenting on collections and APIs, including on specific requests, versions,
and inline on schemas and scripts.
To get the most out of Postman's collaboration features, create or join a team.
You can be a member of up to ten Postman teams, regardless of if they're Postman
Free, Basic, Professional, or Enterprise.
> Note that if an Enterprise team within your organization implements domain
> capture, you won't be able to remain on or join extra Postman teams with your
> captured accounts.

ABOUT ACCOUNTS AND TEAMS
When you sign up for Postman as an individual, you create a Postman account. If
you join a Postman team, you can decide to either move your workspaces and
transfer ownership to the team or keep your workspaces separate and maintain
ownership of them in your account. This decision affects your account:
* When you move your workspaces to a team, your account will cease to exist and
you'll only have the option to switch between teams, rather than work in an
account.
* When you keep your workspaces, you'll retain your account and you can switch
between the team and your account at any time.
In certain cases, your personal workspaces and the data within them
automatically transfer when you join a team. For more information, see Joining a
team.
When you leave a team, a Postman account is created for you if you don't already
have one. If you as a user are deactivated through SCIM and you are a member of
other teams, you will still have access to your account and other teams you are
a member of. If you aren't a member of any other team and don't have an account,
you won't be able to authenticate into that account, and will need to contact
support.
CREATING A TEAM
The first time you create a team, do the following:
1. Select the arrow next to Team (if you’re on a paid plan) or Upgrade (if
you’re on a free plan), then select Create team.
2. Select Set Up Your Team.
3. (Optional) Provide a team name, URL, and logo, and decide if you want to
turn on team discovery.
4. Select Continue.
5. (Optional) Invite collaborators to your team by email or sharing an invite
link.
6. Select Continue or Maybe Later.
If you're a member of two or more teams, you can create additional teams. To
create a new team, do the following:
1. Select your avatar in the Postman header, then select + Create Team.
2. Follow the team creation steps in this section.
Postman Free lets teams of up to three work together at no cost. If you want to
collaborate with more team members, features, and increased usage limits, you
can upgrade to a Basic, Professional, or Enterprise plan. To do so, select
Upgrade in the upper-right corner.
If you have an account and create a Postman team through the flow mentioned
above, you can choose to transfer your personal workspaces and the data within
them to the team or keep them separate. (Your personal workspaces and data may
transfer to your team automatically in some situations; see Joining a team for
details.) When you leave a team, your personal workspaces within the team and
their data will remain with the team and no longer be accessible to you in some
situations; see Leaving a team for details.
> For more information on setting up Postman within your organization, check out
> the Onboarding checklist.
JOINING A TEAM
There are several ways you can join a Postman team:
* Email invite - Select Join Team in the email invite. Create a new Postman
account or sign in to an existing one. After signing in, you'll be redirected
to your new team.
* Invite link - Open the link and select Accept Invite. Create a new Postman
account or sign in to an existing one. After signing in, you'll be redirected
to your new team.
* Team discovery - When first joining Postman, you can find teams to join
within your organization.
* SSO automatic provisioning - If a team in your organization has automatic
provisioning enabled in their SSO configuration, you can join the team by
signing in to Postman with SSO.
* SCIM provisioning - If your organization has enabled SCIM provisioning, you
may be added to your organization's Postman team and receive an email invite.
Select Join Team in the email and sign in to Postman with SSO.
* Domain capture - If your organization has configured domain capture and you
use or create an account associated with a verified domain, Postman will
notify you when you next sign in that your account is managed by your
organization.
You can be a member of up to ten Postman teams, regardless of if they're Postman
Free, Basic, Professional, or Enterprise. However, if an Enterprise team within
your organization implements domain capture, you won't be able to remain on or
join extra Postman teams with your captured accounts.
If you have an account and join a team, you can choose to transfer your personal
workspaces and the data within them to the team or keep them separate. In
certain cases, your personal workspaces and the data within them automatically
transfer when you join a team:
* If you request to join a team and are approved by a Team Admin.
* If the team has SCIM provisioning enabled.
* If the team has domain capture enabled.
> When you join an Enterprise team, Super Admins have access to all personal
> workspaces you transfer over and any you create within the team moving
> forward.
When you leave a team, your personal workspaces within the team and their data
will remain with the team and no longer be accessible to you in some situations;
see Leaving a team for details. (Personal workspaces in a team refers to
workspace visibility and not data ownership.)
SWITCHING BETWEEN TEAMS
If you belong to multiple teams, you can sign in to them at the same time with
your Postman account. To switch between teams, select your avatar in the top
right. Select a team to open.
If you're a member of two or more teams, you can also select + Create Team to
create a new team.
If you have an account, switch to it by selecting your avatar in the top right.
Then select your avatar and username labeled Individual.
LEAVING A TEAM
You can leave a Postman team by selecting your avatar in the top right, then
Settings. Select Teams on the left.
Close
Select Leave Team to the right of a team to leave it. If you're a member of an
Enterprise team that has SCIM configured, you must contact a Team Admin to
remove you from the team.
When you leave a team, you no longer have access to the team's workspaces,
including personal workspaces, or any of the elements in them. You must reassign
your personal workspaces to a remaining team member before leaving if one of the
following is true:
* You're from an Enterprise team.
* You're from a Free, Basic, or Professional team, and you have an account.
> An account isn't associated with a team, and only you can access it. To access
> your account, see Switching between teams.
When you leave a team, you can also choose to keep your personal workspaces and
the data within them in an account if the following is true: you're from a Free,
Basic, or Professional team and you don't have an account.
If you're the last member to leave a team, the team will be deleted. You will no
longer have access to the team's workspaces, including personal workspaces, or
any elements in them. Export your Postman data prior to leaving the team to
ensure it stays with you.
TEAM USAGE LIMITS
Your team's usage limits are based on your plan type and any add-ons your team
has purchased.
Open the Resource usage dashboard to see your team's usage of mock servers and
monitors, APIs created, collection runner runs, image and file storage, Flow
requests, performance tests, integrations, and the Postman Cloud Agent. To open
the Resource usage dashboard, do one of the following:
* Free users - In the Postman header, select the menu next to Upgrade.
* Paid users - In the Postman header, select Team.
> To learn more about the resources included with your Postman plan and what
> happens when you reach your usage limits, go to About resource usage.
Team members with the Billing role can purchase extra blocks of monitoring
requests, mock server calls, and custom domains in the billing dashboard.
