Set up

Add Postman to Gumloop in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in Gumloop then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Postman in Runlayer

    Add Postman from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect Gumloop to Runlayer

    Users add the Runlayer Plugin to Gumloop by following Runlayer’s setup guide. Gumloop reaches Postman’s 41 tools through the Runlayer Plugin’s search and execute tools instead of listing each one.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Postman

    Sign in the way Postman requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Postman from Gumloop

    Postman’s approved tools appear in Gumloop. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in Gumloop

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Gumloop exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Postman call from Gumloop passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, Gumloop as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Native enforcement adapter (not available)

    Runlayer has no device-side adapter for Gumloop yet, so control happens at the gateway.
