## Work with Postman in your existing tools

We have more than one way to help streamline building, testing and deploying your APIs.

### Postman CLI

The Postman CLI is the command-line companion that is developed, supported, and signed by Postman. It enables you to run collections, lint API schemas, run security and governance checks, and log in and out from your local environment or CI workflows.

### Postman VS Code extension

The Postman VS Code extension lets you explore, test, and organize APIs from within Visual Studio Code. It works alongside the Postman desktop app, which provides Native Git support and offline workflows. The extension also supports VSCodium, Cursor, and Windsurf.
