Collection organization best practices

To organize Postman collections for Tallyfy’s API effectively, group requests by resource type, use folders for workflows, and implement consistent naming conventions. Well-organized collections reduce errors and speed up Tallyfy integration development.

Collection structure patterns

Resource-based organization

Postman experts recommend organizing by domain resources, following RESTful API patterns. Structure your collection to mirror Tallyfy’s resources:

📁 Tallyfy API Collection
  📁 [SETUP] Authentication
    - Get Access Token (Password Grant)
    - Refresh Access Token
    - Test Authentication
    - Multi-User Token Manager
  📁 [CORE] Templates (Checklists)
    - List All Templates
    - Get Template Details
    - Get Template with Prereqs
    - Search Templates by Category
    - Template Permissions Check
  📁 [CORE] Processes (Runs)
    - Launch Process
    - Launch with Kick-off Data
    - Launch with Dynamic Assignees
    - List Active Processes
    - Get Process Details
    - Update Process Metadata
    - Archive Process
    - Bulk Process Operations
  📁 [CORE] Tasks
    - List My Tasks
    - List Org Tasks (Filtered)
    - Get Task Details
    - Complete Task
    - Complete with Form Data
    - Bulk Complete Tasks
    - Add Task Comment
    - Reassign Task
    - Task Escalation
  📁 [UTILS] Files
    - Upload File to Task
    - Upload Multiple Files
    - Download File
    - Get File Metadata
    - Delete File
    - File Type Validation
  📁 [ADMIN] Members & Groups
    - List Organization Members
    - Get Member Details
    - Invite New Member
    - Update Member Role
    - Create Group
    - Assign Group to Task
    - Group Permissions
  📁 [DEMO] Workflows (End-to-End)
    - Complete Onboarding Flow
    - Approval Process Demo
    - Document Review Cycle
    - Emergency Process Override
  📁 [ADMIN] Reports & Analytics
    - Organization Settings
    - Export Process Data
    - Analytics Queries
    - Performance Metrics
    - Audit Trail Access

Expert insight: The bracket prefixes ([SETUP], [CORE], [UTILS], [ADMIN], [DEMO]) help team members quickly identify the purpose and access level required for each folder section.

Workflow-based organization

For process-specific collections:

📁 HR Processes Collection
  📁 Employee Onboarding
    📂 Setup
      - Authenticate
      - Get Onboarding Template
    📂 Launch
      - Create New Employee Process
      - Assign to HR Manager
    📂 Day 1 Tasks
      - Complete Paperwork Task
      - Upload Documents
      - IT Equipment Request
    📂 Week 1 Tasks
      - Training Assignments
      - Manager Check-in
    📂 Verification
      - Check All Tasks Complete
      - Generate Report
  📁 Performance Reviews
    ...
  📁 Leave Requests
    ...

Naming conventions

Request naming standards

Postman community research shows that consistent naming reduces onboarding time by 60%. Use this proven pattern:

Format: [METHOD] - [Action] [Resource] [Context]

✅ Expert-level names:
- POST - Launch Process from Template with Assignees
- GET - List Active Tasks for Current User (Filtered)
- PUT - Complete Task with Form Data and File Upload
- DELETE - Archive Completed Process (Bulk Operation)
- PATCH - Update Task Assignment by Workload
- GET - Search Templates by Category and Permissions

❌ Beginner mistakes:
- Test
- New Request
- API Call 1
- Process Stuff
- Copy of Launch Process
- Untitled Request

Advanced naming patterns:

// Environment-specific naming
- [PROD] GET - List Templates
- [STAGE] POST - Launch Test Process
- [DEV] DELETE - Cleanup Test Data

// User context naming
- [ADMIN] PUT - Update Organization Settings
- [USER] GET - List My Assigned Tasks
- [GUEST] POST - Submit External Form

// Workflow sequence naming
- [1] POST - Authenticate User
- [2] GET - Fetch Available Templates
- [3] POST - Launch Selected Process
- [4] PUT - Complete First Task
- [5] GET - Verify Process Status

Variable naming standards

Based on Postman enterprise best practices, establish clear variable hierarchies:

// Global variables (SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE) - rarely used
APP_VERSION
API_SPECIFICATION_VERSION
DEFAULT_TIMEOUT

// Environment variables (UPPERCASE with prefix)
TALLYFY_BASE_URL
TALLYFY_ORG_ID
TALLYFY_ACCESS_TOKEN
TALLYFY_CLIENT_ID
TALLYFY_RATE_LIMIT

// Collection variables (PascalCase with context)
CurrentProcessId
ActiveTemplateId
TestUserEmail
DefaultAssigneeGroup
BaselineResponseTime

// Request-local variables (camelCase)
const taskCount = 5;
const processName = "Onboarding";
const iterationIndex = pm.info.iteration;

// Temporary variables (prefix with TEMP_)
TEMP_AUTH_STATE
TEMP_UPLOAD_TOKEN
TEMP_VALIDATION_RESULT

// Debug variables (prefix with DEBUG_)
DEBUG_REQUEST_COUNT
DEBUG_ERROR_LOG
DEBUG_PERFORMANCE_METRICS

Variable scoping best practices:

// Use appropriate scope for data lifecycle

// Global: App-wide constants (rarely changes)
pm.globals.set("API_VERSION", "v2");

// Environment: Environment-specific config
pm.environment.set("TALLYFY_BASE_URL", "https://go.tallyfy.com/api");

// Collection: Shared across requests in collection
pm.collectionVariables.set("CurrentSessionId", sessionId);

// Local: Single request only
pm.variables.set("tempCalculation", result);

// Best practice: Clear temporary variables
pm.test("Cleanup", () => {
    ["TEMP_AUTH_STATE", "TEMP_UPLOAD_TOKEN"].forEach(key => {
        pm.environment.unset(key);
    });
});

Folder prefixes and organization

Enterprise teams use standardized prefixes to indicate purpose and access levels:

📁 [SETUP] - Authentication & Configuration
📁 [CORE] - Primary Business Operations
📁 [UTILS] - Helper Requests & Utilities
📁 [TEST] - Testing Scenarios & Validation
📁 [DEMO] - Example Workflows & Training
📁 [ADMIN] - Administrative Operations
📁 [DEBUG] - Debugging & Diagnostics
📁 [DEPRECATED] - Legacy Requests (Keep for Reference)

Advanced folder organization patterns:

// By API version
📁 [V1] Legacy API Endpoints
📁 [V2] Current API Endpoints
📁 [V3] Beta API Endpoints

// By user role
📁 [ADMIN_ONLY] Administrative Functions
📁 [USER_STD] Standard User Operations
📁 [GUEST_ACCESS] External User Functions

// By environment
📁 [PROD_SAFE] Production-Safe Operations
📁 [STAGE_TEST] Staging Test Operations
📁 [DEV_EXPERIMENTAL] Development Experiments

// By workflow stage
📁 [01_SETUP] Initial Configuration
📁 [02_ONBOARD] User Onboarding Flow
📁 [03_OPERATE] Daily Operations
📁 [04_MAINTAIN] Maintenance Tasks
📁 [05_CLEANUP] Cleanup & Archival

Folder ordering best practices:

// Use numeric prefixes for logical ordering
📁 01-Authentication
📁 02-Templates
📁 03-Processes
📁 04-Tasks
📁 05-Files
📁 06-Admin
📁 99-Utilities

// Or use emoji for visual distinction
📁 🔐 Authentication
📁 📋 Templates
📁 ⚙️ Processes
📁 ✅ Tasks
📁 📎 Files
📁 👥 Admin
📁 🛠️ Utilities

Documentation standards

Request documentation

Enterprise teams document requests with this proven template:

## Complete Task with Form Data

### 📝 Description
Completes a task and submits any required form field data. This endpoint triggers workflow progression and notifications.

### 🎯 Use Cases
- Approve/reject requests with comments
- Submit completed work with evidence
- Progress multi-step workflows
- Capture structured data for reporting

### ✅ Prerequisites
- Task must be assigned to authenticated user (or user has admin role)
- Task must be in 'active' status
- All required form fields must be provided
- User must have completion permissions

### 📥 Request
**Method**: `PUT`
**Endpoint**: `/tasks/{taskId}/complete`
**Content-Type**: `application/json`

**Path Parameters**:
- `taskId` (string, required): The task identifier

**Request Body**:
```json
{
  "captures": {
    "field_status": "Approved",        // Select field
    "field_amount": 1500.00,           // Number field
    "field_notes": "Approved per policy", // Text field
    "field_approved": true,            // Boolean field
    "field_date": "2024-01-15"         // Date field (YYYY-MM-DD)
  },
  "comment": "Optional completion comment" // Optional
}

📤 Response

Success (200):

{
  "id": "task_123",
  "status": "completed",
  "completed_at": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z",
  "completed_by": "user_456",
  "captures": {
    "field_status": "Approved",
    "field_amount": 1500.00,
    "field_notes": "Approved per policy"
  },
  "next_tasks": ["task_789"] // Tasks created by completion
}

⚠️ Error Responses

Code	Reason	Solution
400	Invalid JSON format	Check request body syntax
401	Authentication failed	Verify token and X-Tallyfy-Client header
403	Permission denied	Task not assigned to you
404	Task not found	Check task ID and organization
422	Validation failed	Check required fields and data types
429	Rate limit exceeded	Add delays between requests

🧪 Test Script

// Validation tests included with request
pm.test("Task completed successfully", () => {
    pm.expect(pm.response.code).to.equal(200);
    const response = pm.response.json();
    pm.expect(response.status).to.equal("completed");
    pm.expect(response.completed_at).to.exist;
});

pm.test("Form data captured", () => {
    const response = pm.response.json();
    pm.expect(response.captures).to.exist;
    pm.expect(response.captures.field_status).to.equal("Approved");
});

📊 Performance

• Typical response time: 200-500ms
• Rate limit: 1000 requests/hour
• Timeout: 30 seconds

🔗 Related Endpoints

• GET /tasks/{taskId} - Get task details
• POST /tasks/{taskId}/comments - Add comment
• PUT /tasks/{taskId}/assign - Reassign task

💡 Tips

• Use dynamic field validation from task schema
• Implement retry logic for network issues
• Cache form field definitions to reduce API calls
• Consider bulk completion for multiple tasks

## Environment management

### Environment hierarchy

Set up multiple environments:

```javascript
// Production (Default)
{
  "TALLYFY_BASE_URL": "https://go.tallyfy.com/api",
  "TALLYFY_ORG_ID": "org_prod_123",
  "LOG_LEVEL": "ERROR"
}

// Staging
{
  "TALLYFY_BASE_URL": "https://go.tallyfy.com/api",
  "TALLYFY_ORG_ID": "org_stage_456",
  "LOG_LEVEL": "INFO"
}

// Development
{
  "TALLYFY_BASE_URL": "https://go.tallyfy.com/api",
  "TALLYFY_ORG_ID": "org_dev_789",
  "LOG_LEVEL": "DEBUG",
  "USE_MOCK": "false"
}

Variable scoping

Use appropriate scope for variables:

// Global variables - Rarely used
pm.globals.set("APP_VERSION", "1.0.0");

// Collection variables - Shared across requests
pm.collectionVariables.set("DefaultTimeout", 5000);

// Environment variables - Environment-specific
pm.environment.set("TALLYFY_ORG_ID", "org_123");

// Local variables - Single request only
pm.variables.set("tempValue", "abc");

Pre-request scripts

Collection-level script

Add to collection for all requests:

// Auto-add required headers
if (!pm.request.headers.has("X-Tallyfy-Client")) {
    pm.request.headers.add({
        key: "X-Tallyfy-Client",
        value: "APIClient"
    });
}

// Add auth header if token exists
const token = pm.environment.get("TALLYFY_ACCESS_TOKEN");
if (token && !pm.request.headers.has("Authorization")) {
    pm.request.headers.add({
        key: "Authorization",
        value: `Bearer ${token}`
    });
}

// Performance tracking
pm.variables.set("requestStartTime", Date.now());

Folder-level scripts

Add specific behavior to folders:

// For "Files" folder - add multipart handling
if (pm.request.body && pm.request.body.mode === 'formdata') {
    console.log("File upload request detected");
    // Add file-specific handling
}

// For "Admin" folder - add extra logging
console.log("Admin operation:", pm.request.name);
pm.environment.set("ADMIN_ACTION_LOG", pm.request.name);

Test organization

Shared test functions

Create reusable test utilities:

// In collection Tests tab
pm.collectionVariables.set("testUtils", {
    // Check successful response
    expectSuccess: function(responseCode = 200) {
        pm.test(`Status code is ${responseCode}`, () => {
            pm.expect(pm.response.code).to.equal(responseCode);
        });

        pm.test("Response time is acceptable", () => {
            pm.expect(pm.response.responseTime).to.be.below(1000);
        });
    },

    // Validate response structure
    expectFields: function(fields) {
        pm.test("Response has required fields", () => {
            const json = pm.response.json();
            fields.forEach(field => {
                pm.expect(json).to.have.property(field);
            });
        });
    },

    // Save ID for chaining
    saveId: function(idField, variableName) {
        const id = pm.response.json()[idField];
        if (id) {
            pm.collectionVariables.set(variableName, id);
            console.log(`Saved ${variableName}: ${id}`);
        }
    }
});

// Usage in request tests:
const utils = pm.collectionVariables.get("testUtils");
utils.expectSuccess(201);
utils.expectFields(['id', 'name', 'status']);
utils.saveId('id', 'lastProcessId');

Version control

Exporting for Git

Best practices for version control:

1. Export settings:

   • Export collection as v2.1 format
   • Include collection variables
   • Exclude environment values

2. Directory structure:

   postman/
     collections/
       tallyfy-api-v1.json
       tallyfy-workflows.json
     environments/
       production.template.json
       staging.template.json
     schemas/
       openapi-spec.json
     scripts/
       pre-request-global.js
       test-utils.js

3. Environment templates:

   {
     "name": "Tallyfy Production",
     "values": [
       {
         "key": "TALLYFY_CLIENT_ID",
         "value": "REPLACE_ME",
         "type": "secret"
       },
       {
         "key": "TALLYFY_BASE_URL",
         "value": "https://go.tallyfy.com/api",
         "type": "default"
       }
     ]
   }

Change tracking

Add version info to collection:

// In collection description or pre-request
const collectionInfo = {
    version: "2.1.0",
    lastUpdated: "2024-01-15",
    author: "API Team",
    changelog: [
        "2.1.0 - Added bulk operations",
        "2.0.0 - Migrated to OAuth",
        "1.0.0 - Initial release"
    ]
};

pm.collectionVariables.set("COLLECTION_INFO", collectionInfo);

Sharing and collaboration

Team workspace setup

Organize for team use:

1. Workspace structure:

   Tallyfy API Workspace/
     Official Collections/
       - Tallyfy API v2
       - Tallyfy Webhooks
     Team Collections/
       - HR Workflows
       - Finance Processes
     Personal/
       - [User] Test Collection

2. Permissions:

   • Official: View only for most
   • Team: Edit for department
   • Personal: Private drafts

3. Forking strategy:

   • Fork official collections for experiments
   • Submit pull requests for improvements
   • Maintain clear fork naming

Documentation for sharing

Include a README in your collection:

## Quick Start

1. Fork this collection to your workspace
2. Create environment from template
3. Add your credentials (see Setup Guide)
4. Run "Test Authentication" to verify
5. Explore example workflows in /Demos

## Common Issues

- 401 Errors: Check X-Tallyfy-Client header
- Rate limits: See /Utils/Check Rate Limit
- File uploads: Must use form-data

## Contributing

1. Fork the collection
2. Make changes in your fork
3. Test thoroughly
4. Submit pull request with description

Maintenance practices

Regular cleanup

Monthly maintenance tasks:

// Find unused variables
const env = pm.environment.toObject();
const unused = [];

Object.keys(env).forEach(key => {
    // Search collection for variable usage
    const used = pm.collectionVariables.get(`${key}_USED`);
    if (!used) {
        unused.push(key);
    }
});

console.log("Potentially unused variables:", unused);

Performance optimization

Keep collections fast:

1. Minimize pre-request scripts - Only essential logic
2. Async operations - Use promises for parallel requests
3. Conditional tests - Skip tests when not needed
4. Archive old requests - Move to separate collection

Advanced organization techniques

Collection inheritance and DRY principles

Postman experts follow “Don’t Repeat Yourself” principles:

// Collection-level pre-request script (applies to all requests)
const baseConfig = {
    timeout: 30000,
    retries: 3,
    rateLimit: {
        requestsPerHour: 1000,
        minDelay: 100
    }
};

// Auto-add required headers
if (!pm.request.headers.has("X-Tallyfy-Client")) {
    pm.request.headers.add({
        key: "X-Tallyfy-Client",
        value: "APIClient"
    });
}

// Auto-refresh token if needed
const tokenExpiry = pm.environment.get("TALLYFY_TOKEN_EXPIRY");
if (tokenExpiry && Date.now() >= tokenExpiry - 300000) { // 5 min buffer
    console.log("Token refresh needed - consider running refresh request");
}

// Apply base configuration
pm.request.timeout = baseConfig.timeout;

Multi-level folder structure

Utilize Postman’s deep nesting capabilities:

📁 Tallyfy API Collection
  📁 [CORE] Templates
    📁 Template CRUD
      - Create Template
      - Read Template
      - Update Template
      - Delete Template
    📁 Template Workflows
      - Launch Process
      - Clone Template
      - Export Template
    📁 Template Admin
      - Set Permissions
      - Archive Template
      - Audit Template Changes
  📁 [CORE] Processes
    📁 Process Lifecycle
      📁 Creation

        - Export Data
        - Generate Reports

Collection-level configuration

// Collection variables for shared configuration
pm.collectionVariables.set("API_VERSION", "v2");
pm.collectionVariables.set("DEFAULT_TIMEOUT", 30000);
pm.collectionVariables.set("MAX_RETRIES", 3);
pm.collectionVariables.set("DEBUG_MODE", "INFO");

// Shared utilities
const utils = {
    formatDate: (date) => date.toISOString().split('T')[0],
    generateId: () => pm.variables.replaceIn('{{$randomUUID}}'),
    logError: (context, error) => {
        const errorLog = JSON.parse(pm.environment.get("ERROR_LOG") || '[]');
        errorLog.push({
            timestamp: new Date().toISOString(),
            context: context,
            error: error,
            request: pm.request.url.toString()
        });
        pm.environment.set("ERROR_LOG", JSON.stringify(errorLog));
    }
};

pm.collectionVariables.set("UTILS", JSON.stringify(utils));

Request dependencies and sequencing

// Dependency tracking system
const dependencies = {
    "Complete Task": ["Get Task Details", "Authenticate"],
    "Launch Process": ["Get Template", "Authenticate"],
    "Upload File": ["Complete Task", "Authenticate"]
};

// Auto-validate dependencies
const currentRequest = pm.info.requestName;
const requiredDeps = dependencies[currentRequest] || [];

requiredDeps.forEach(dep => {
    const depCompleted = pm.environment.get(`DEP_${dep.replace(/\s+/g, '_').toUpperCase()}`);
    if (!depCompleted) {
        console.warn(`⚠️ Dependency not met: ${dep}`);
    }
});

// Mark current request as completed
pm.test("Mark dependency completed", () => {
    if (pm.response.code < 400) {
        pm.environment.set(`DEP_${currentRequest.replace(/\s+/g, '_').toUpperCase()}`, true);
    }
});

Performance and maintenance

// Collection health monitoring
const collectionHealth = {
    totalRequests: pm.info.requestId,
    averageResponseTime: pm.environment.get("AVERAGE_RESPONSE_TIME") || 0,
    errorRate: pm.environment.get("ERROR_RATE") || 0,
    lastMaintenance: pm.environment.get("LAST_MAINTENANCE") || "Never"
};

// Alert on performance degradation
if (collectionHealth.averageResponseTime > 2000) {
    console.warn("⚠️ Collection performance degraded - review slow endpoints");
}

// Auto-cleanup old data
const cleanupInterval = 7 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000; // 7 days
const lastCleanup = pm.environment.get("LAST_CLEANUP") || 0;

if (Date.now() - lastCleanup > cleanupInterval) {
    // Clean up old logs and temporary data
    ["ERROR_LOG", "RESPONSE_METRICS", "DEBUG_SESSION_DATA"].forEach(key => {
        const data = JSON.parse(pm.environment.get(key) || '[]');
        if (data.length > 100) {
