Hi @cmatos23, thanks for reaching out, that's a great idea. We'll work on it. I'll leave this issue open in the meantime.
Hi @cmatos23, we just implemented that and updated the collection. Thanks again for the great idea.
Hi,
This is a suggestion for every API call with a path parameter that might change from request to request (ex. SObject, Record Id, etc.). Currently, there are placeholders in every URL with this type of path parameter (ex.). This suggestion is to use path variables instead of placeholders (https://learning.postman.com/docs/sending-requests/requests/#sending-parameters)
Ex. Describe SObject Layouts Per Record Type
URL is as follows:
{{_endpoint}}/services/data/v{{version}}/sobjects/<SOBJECT_API_NAME>/describe/layouts/<RECORD_TYPE_ID>
with this suggestion URL would be:
{{_endpoint}}/services/data/v{{version}}/sobjects/:SOBJECT_API_NAME/describe/layouts/:RECORD_TYPE_ID
With suggestion, user would not have to directly the modify the URL to update the SOBJECT_API_NAME or RECORD_TYPE_ID and can use Path Variables in the "Params" tab of the request. Using this method, another benefit would be the ability to add a description for each path variable
