Mastering API Ops: Build Scalable Applications
summary
Demonstrates building a scalable app using Postman tools and real APIs: uses Twitter, Positionstack and Weather API chained with Postman collections, variables and pre-request/tests to fetch locations, convert to lat/long, and visualize teammates worldwide with D3.js. Automates runs via Postman CLI/Newman and Collection Runner using setNextRequest loops; cites Postman scale—25 million users and 1.13 billion API requests—and shows the workflow running end-to-end and producing a working global visualization.
