We can use "send and download" option in Postman to download a response file. Do we have any option or command to download a file(eg excel) using Newman command in newman's current working directory?
you may have a look at: https://www.npmjs.com/package/newman#newman-run-collection-file-source-options.
You can use reporters :
add:
-r json
then add
--reporter-json-export <path/file.json>
in your newman run command options and it will output a json report file.
If you want other formats, check the other reporters (html, junit and cli) with their respective options.
warning: dont put spaces when you set them (ie. -r cli,json,html)

There is not currently any way to download the JSON response body to a file outside of Postman. The reporters available for Newman only give the results of the collection query and tests, but do not include the body response of the original GET request.
Looks like it is not there as of this comment
https://github.com/postmanlabs/newman/issues/413
A workaround is available in this bug, that might be useful !

By default, Adonis generates "nicely formatted" error responses. Problem is, they often generate more pain than they help. It turns hard to read responses in the console or tools like Postman. How can I configure so that Adonis always responds in plaintext in case of an exception?
Run this command in AdonisJS project directory
adonis make:ehandler
File app\Exceptions\Handler.js will be created. Now you will get simple errors.
In your global error handler, you can set the headers to plain text like this:
response.header('Content-type', 'text/plain')
I am using the Postman Collection Runner to automate a series of API calls. On one of these API calls I need to submit a binary file as the body of a POST. When setting up the Collection Runner I see how to select a file, but I can't figure out how to attach that file to the body of the POST request in the "Pre-request Script".
Is it possible in a "Pre-request Script" to load a binary file into the "data" object?
Currently postman collection runner doesn't support file uploads.
You will have to use newman to execute your Automation Test Suite(collection).
Have a look at this answer:
Postman - POST request with file upload
I have been struggling with Jenkins lately, and I'm stuck because I wanna send some parameters through HTTP Post, and I know how to do it, but the thing is that I am saving a Http request response to a file in my workspace, and then I want to use that file, read it and send the text I saved previously to a new HTTP Request, does anyone have any idea how can I achieve this?
Thanks in advance!!!
Install copy artifacts from another project plugin ( copy artifacts) add in build steps store the file in your workspace then you can run a shell script to read the desired content from that file .
if curl would work, that would be a simple way to send a file's contents as your POST body. see this answer.
Jenkins can work with Jmeter and Jmeter is great tool for handling request and response see tutorial
I am using newman tool to run my postman tests on command line. Get and Post method seems to be working fine but Delete method is not deleting the resource but give status 200 OK. Please see the screen shot. On Postman gui tool it works fine.
I copied the curl from chrome network tool while performing DELETE using POSTMAN Chrome client and saw that it does use postman token in the request header. Added Postman Token to header for Delete operation in newman and it works fine.
I am using the Postman Collection Runner to run the same request multiple times using iterations. My tests work as expected, but I'm not able to see the individual responses for each request.
Is it possible to view the responses for requests in the Postman Collection Runner?
In the latest version of Postman you can see all the data from the collection run for each individual request.
In the Collection Runner, Click on the request name and all the details of the request and response can be viewed.
More information can be going on the Debugging using the Request & Response body section of this page
This might help somebody, I tried
pm.test(responseBody, true)
and this printed the response in run summary.
Let me add more details about the shadowcharly solution.
Your results may be viewed if you assign responseBody variable to tests array (in Tests tab)
tests["body"] = responseBody
and export it as json (on the interface you only see the zero/one results if test passed or not).
It's not very useful but this is the only way I've found.
If you are repeating exactly the same query, you could use the test name to show the result:
tests['Test to see value of key Key'+ keyValue] = testResult....
You will have a different test for each value received, not exactly a log, but works fantastic ;)
I know this is old, but postman has added a feature in the collection runner.
