How to fix Postman not working
Postman is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach postman.com over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check the official status page
Open https://status.postman.com in a browser outside the app. If the page shows an incident or a spike in problem reports, the service is likely the cause, so wait for an update. You can also open the help centre at https://support.postman.com for known issues.
Restart Postman and retry the request
Quit the app completely with File > Exit on Windows or Postman > Quit on macOS, then open it again and send the same request. If it still fails, check the request's URL, method, headers, and variables for typos. A single bad environment variable can break every call that uses it.
Turn off proxy and SSL checks
Open Settings > Proxy and disable Use System Proxy if your network does not require one. Then go to Settings > General and turn off SSL certificate verification only for the test, because corporate proxies and self-signed certificates often cause connection errors. Turn it back on after the request works.
Reset Postman local data or reinstall
Open Settings > Data and use Clear cache or Reset local data, then sign in again. If the app still crashes or fails to load collections, uninstall it and install the current version again. Back up local collections first, because a reset removes them.
While Postman is down: what to use instead
- Insomnia Use Insomnia to send API requests and inspect responses while Postman is unavailable.
- Bruno Run requests from a Bruno collection saved on your computer when you need to work without Postman's workspace.
- curl For a quick check, run the request from a terminal with curl.
- HTTPie HTTPie has a readable terminal client for testing an endpoint without opening a desktop app.
Fix Postman on Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone
Postman on Windows
- Fix
- If the Postman desktop app is not responding on Windows, try clearing the app's local data directory or disabling hardware acceleration in the settings. You can also check if your Windows proxy or firewall settings are blocking Postman's network requests.
- Check
- Verify if Postman is down by checking the official Postman Status page or attempting to sign in to the Postman web dashboard. You can also test if other web services are loading to rule out local network issues.

- Fix
- Resolve Postman issues on macOS by force quitting the application and clearing its active cache from the Application Support folder. Also, ensure that Postman has the necessary network permissions in your macOS System Settings.
- Check
- Check if Postman is experiencing an outage by visiting status.postman.com or trying to access your workspaces via a web browser. If the web platform loads but the desktop app does not, the issue may be local to your Mac.
ping -c 4 postman.comTest whether Postman's servers replynslookup postman.comCheck that Postman's DNS resolvestraceroute postman.comTrace where the connection dropssudo dscacheutil -flushcache; sudo killall -HUP mDNSResponderFlush the macOS DNS cache, then reloadPostman on Android
- Fix
- If you cannot access the Postman web platform or dashboard on Android, clear your mobile browser's cache and cookies. Ensure your device is not connected to a restrictive VPN or firewall that blocks Postman's API services.
- Check
- To see if Postman is down on Android, try loading the Postman status page in your mobile browser. You can also switch from Wi-Fi to mobile data to see if the connection issue is specific to your local network.
Postman on iPhone and iPad
- Fix
- Fix Postman web dashboard issues on your iPhone or iPad by clearing your Safari or Chrome browser history and website data. If you are using a VPN, temporarily disable it to see if it resolves connection issues with Postman.
- Check
- Determine if Postman is down on iOS by checking the official Postman status page using your mobile browser. If the status page shows all systems operational, try loading another website to verify your internet connection.
What happens when Postman goes down
Postman is an API platform where people build, test and document requests inside collections and shared workspaces, and it runs as a desktop app, a web version and a command line runner. When the service goes down, the shared half of that work stops: collections quit syncing, teammates lose sight of each other's edits, and a request that worked an hour ago may fail before it leaves your machine.
Sync breaks first. The app opens, your local copy still sends requests, and everything you changed sits there without reaching anyone else. Calls that need a fresh token or a cloud round trip come back with 'Could not send request' or a connection error, while mock servers and cloud monitors stop answering, so a test run that depends on them fails with no useful reason attached. Trouble is usually partial: one region or one workspace drops out while another keeps working, which is why two people on the same team can disagree about whether anything is broken.

How we track Postman
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Postman, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Postman, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Postman's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
