Postman Sending Your First RequestSending a request is as easy as posting a URL into your web browser. We can easily send requests to APIs in Postman. An API request helps you to access, or send, data from a data source. To send the API request, we need an HTTP method. Some commonly used methods are POST, GET, DELETE, PUT, and PATCH. GET: This HTTP method is used to access the data from an API. POST: This method transmits new data. DELETE: This is used to remove or delete the existing data. PATCH: This method is used to update the existing data. PUT: This method is used to update the existing data. Without any terminal or code, we can make API requests and review the answers with the help of postman. Just build a new request and select the send button, you'll get the API response. Sending a RequestOpen the Postman app to send the first API request. Now, to open a new tab, click on the + plus button. You can also open the new tab by entering ctrl+T or from the Open New menu select Tab option.
