Setting up Postman environment

View the instructions to import the environment & collection into postman.

Basically, you can import the environment & collection using the import button seen below.

The token variable will need to be updated frequently as the token expires within a few hours.

The token can be fetched from the browser's local storage.

Adding additional environments

Values in each environment will vary. One way to fetch those values is to inspect the network calls and use those values to populate the environments in postman.
