Use the API with Postman
You can import the Bytes Developer API into Postman from the OpenAPI specification.
What you need
- A Bytes account
- A workspace API key
- Postman installed or available in your browser
- The Bytes OpenAPI specification URL
https://developer.jaww.ws/openapi/bytes-developer-api.openapi.yaml
Import the API
- Open Postman.
- Choose Import.
- Import from the OpenAPI URL above, or download the YAML file from the OpenAPI page and import the file.
- Confirm the imported collection or API.
- Save it into the workspace you want to use.
Add variables
Create or update an environment with these variables:
| Variable | Value |
|---|---|
base_url | https://api.jaww.ws/api/v1 |
bytes_api_key | Your workspace API key |
Do not share environments that contain real API keys.
Set authentication
For the collection or request, set bearer token authentication with:
{{bytes_api_key}}
Postman should send it as:
Authorization: Bearer {{bytes_api_key}}
Try a request
Start with List workspace tags:
GET {{base_url}}/tags
Then try Create a short link with a safe test destination.
Safety notes
- Do not commit exported Postman environments containing real keys.
- Do not paste real API keys into screenshots or support messages.
- Revoke and recreate a key if you think it has been exposed.
