postman how to set environment variable code example

Example 1: how to define variables in api

-Use pm.globals to define a global variable:

pm.globals.set("variable_key", "variable_value");

-Use pm.collectionVariables to
define a collection variable:

pm.collectionVariables.set("variable_key", "variable_value");

-Use pm.environment to define an environment
variable (in the currently selected environment):

pm.environment.set("variable_key", "variable_value");

-You can use unset to remove a variable:
pm.environment.unset("variable_key");

-Defining local variables
Local variables are temporary values you set
in your request scripts using the following syntax:

pm.variables.set("variable_key", "variable_value");

Example 2: postman environment variables in body

{ "customer_id" : "{{cust_id}}" }

Example 3: postman environment variables

pm.environment.set("variable_key", "variable_value");

Example 4: defining local variable in api

Local variables are temporary values you set in your request 
scripts using syntax :

pm.variables.set("variable_key", "variable_value");
