Issue
I've been looking around my machine to see where the postman environment variables are stored. I've looked under AppData\Local\Postman
, and C:\Users\username\Postman
folders, and haven't found a config file that has a last modified date matching my change of environment variables.
I know I can export the environment variables, but I want to search over the current variables. And the exports don't include the current values, unless they replace the initial value, which I want to keep.
There are still ways to get around this. But I want to write a simple command to fetch some current environment variables via cmd, ex using grep.
So is there a way to check for the current environment variables? Where are they stored?
Solution
I don't think this will be a successful attempt. Postman seems to use a database, e.g. leveldb, according to information I found here. That will be stored as a binary file on your disk.
You can, however, have a look into the DB by going to View => Developer => Show DevTools and then going to Storage => IndexedDB => variable_sessions => workspace. I can find a current value for an environment variable like this:
But I don't see a way to search in this other than by keys which are uuids and not variable names or values.
All in all, exporting your environments into a text file might be the easiest option.
