Postman Collection Generator

When to Use

Use this skill when you need generate complete, import-ready Postman Collection v2.1 JSON files from natural language API descriptions or cURL commands. Use this skill whenever the user describes an API in plain English ("I have a REST API with these endpoints..."), pastes cURL commands, or asks to "create a...

Generates a valid, import-ready Postman Collection v2.1 JSON from:

• Natural language API descriptions
• cURL commands (one or many)
• Mixed input (some endpoints described, some as cURL)

---

Step 1 — Extract API Information

Parse the user's input and extract for each endpoint:

Field	Source
Name	Described name or inferred from path
Method	Explicit or inferred (GET for fetches, POST for creates, etc.)
URL	Full URL or path; use {{base_url}} variable for the host
Headers	From cURL -H flags or described headers
Auth	Bearer token, Basic, API Key, or None
Body	From cURL -d / --data or described payload (JSON, form-data)
Query params	From URL ?key=value or described filters

If input is ambiguous, make reasonable REST conventions and note assumptions at the end.

Step 2 — Build the Collection JSON

Use this exact v2.1 structure:

{
  "info": {
    "name": "<Collection Name>",
    "schema": "https://schema.getpostman.com/json/collection/v2.1.0/collection.json",
    "_postman_id": "<generate a UUID v4>",
     
  
   
           
  
   <collection-level auth if shared across requests else >
    <request items or folders>
