Collections

PruTAN helps you organize your API requests with collections. You can create collections and add requests to them to share with your team or reuse later. You can also export PruTAN collections and import collections from PruTAN, OpenAPI, cURL, and Postman.

You can access collections by clicking the "Collections" icon on the side panel's Collection submenu.

Creating a New Collection

To create a new collection, click on the "Add new" button in the collections section and enter the name of the collection. You can also create a sub-collection by clicking on the "Add new" button on the desired collection and entering the name of the sub-collection.

Duplicating a Collection

Create a copy of an existing collection to modify or test different configurations without affecting the original.

1. Click on the collection you want to duplicate.
2. Click on the three-dot menu in the collection's options.
3. Select "Duplicate" from the dropdown menu. A new collection with the suffix "- Duplicate" will be created.

Saving Requests to Collections

To add a new request to your collection, click on the "Save" button on the request page and select the collection you want to add it to. Click on the dropdown menu next to the save button and select "Save as" to save the request to a new location.

Organizing Collections

To edit a collection, click on the "Edit" button in the collection's three-dot menu.

To add a request to a collection, click on the "New request" button in the collection's options to save the current request to the collection.

Deleting Collections

To delete a collection, click on the "Delete" button in the collection's options.

Searching Collections

Use the search box at the top of the Collections panel to quickly find a request or folder. Start typing and the collection tree filters to matching items as you type, so you don't have to expand each collection manually to locate a request.

Importing and Exporting Collections

You can import and export collections from PruTAN, OpenAPI, Postman, and other formats.

To import a collection, click on the "Import" button in the collections section and select the collection type you want to import.

To export a collection, click on the "Export" button in the collection's options and select the format you want to export.

Permissions

If the collection is being created in Sandbox or Interceptor, it also requires permissions that are set by the Workspace owner in the profile's section under the Team tab.

For multi-collection workflows — running scripts from one or more collections together and reviewing consolidated results and reports — see Suites.
