}You have a lightweight MCP server that exposes your generated Postman API requests to MCP-compatible clients. It lets you run tools locally and connect to clients like Claude Desktop or Postman, enabling you to query APIs, execute actions, and compose multi-step workflows in a consistent MCP interface.
How to use
Run your MCP server locally and connect it to an MCP client to start using the generated tools. You will interact with the tools through an MCP client, selecting a tool and issuing requests that trigger the corresponding Postman API calls. The server handles tool orchestration, authentication through environment variables, and response streaming when supported by the client.
Typical workflow:
-
Start the MCP server from your project directory. The server runs as a standard Node.js process and serves the tools you generated.
-
Open your MCP client (for example Claude Desktop) and configure a new MCP connection pointing to the local server using the stdio command you provide. You will see a list of tools corresponding to your generated API requests.
How to install
Prerequisites you must have installed before starting the server:
- Node.js 18+ (Node 20+ recommended)
- npm (comes with Node)
Install dependencies from your project root directory:
npm install
Additional options and configuration
Environment variables are used to supply API keys for each workspace. You should create values for the placeholders in your environment file and ensure they are available when the server runs.
Example environment variable placeholders you will see in the project:
ACME_API_KEY=
WIDGETS_API_KEY=
Run commands you will typically use
node mcpServer.js
