Hi Sandrine,

Greetings to you!
 
  • Click on Import -> "Choose Files"
  • Browse to the Swagger doc (swagger.yaml)
  • After selecting the file, a new collection gets created in POSTMAN. It will contain folders based on your endpoints.

In Swagger 2.0 the info field is mandatory. Just add the following to your YAML root: 
info:
  title: 'EmptyTitle'
  description: 'EmptyDescription'
  version: 0.1.0

Also, convert Swagger v2 to Postman v2: https://www.npmjs.com/package/swagger2-postman2-converter

  1. Click on the 'Import' button in the top left corner of Postman UI.
  2. You will see multiple options to import the API doc. Click on the 'Paste Raw Text'.
  3. Paste the JSON format in the text area and click import.
  4. You will see all your APIs as 'Postman Collection' and can use it from the Postman.
