Postman Collection
Explore the Bolt API and quick start development with our Postman Collection.

The Bolt Postman Collection is a collection of API endpoints and environments you can fork to quickly develop with Bolt. The workspace contains the following pre-populated data:

  • Endpoint paths
  • Request bodies
  • Headers

Before You Start

  • You need Bolt API credentials to make requests using the collection. Navigate to The Bolt Merchant Sandbox > Administration > API and copy the following:
    • • Publishable Key (The publishable key is a long string of lower and upper case letters and numbers that consists of three sections.)
    • • API Key
    • • Division Public ID

How to Use

  1. Navigate to the Bolt Postman Workspace.
  2. Click this button to fork the workspace:


  1. Navigate to Environments. Set up your environment by inputting your API credentials for each value. For more information see Postman’s Documentation on setting variables.
  2. Select a request you want to run and click Send.

    NOTE

    You do not have to populate all variables to make requests. Different variables are relevant to different requests.
