Public API for Integrations #10380

Is your feature request related to a problem?

The workflow for managing integrations is cumbersome.

Describe the solution you'd like

Today, one must manually create and maintain integrations -- an integration being the glue that connects monitor's output (which is basically the details on a monitor's success or failure) with something external, such as a webhook or OpsGenie -- via a web browser at https://mycoolcompany.postman.co/integrations. When something like the OpsGenie API key changes, it is a cumbersome process to have to manually update every integration in the account.

Ideally, there would be an API that allows us to manage integrations programatically.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Not using Postman.

@clarkritchie thanks for raising the request. We are exploring the possibilities of the APIs for Integrations. Would it be possible to get onto a call to discuss this issue, we are exploring another solution that might make the Integration creation and management a lot easier? You can schedule a call with us using this link

For the sake of a wider audience, we are planning to ease the Integration configuration by abstracting out the common configurations such as authentication info, etc. This would help the users in two ways: -

All the integrations created in the team extend the common configuration automatically - hence any user can go about creating new Integrations without being dependent on the admins to provide credentials for the provider's (in the above case OpsGenie) account
Any changes made in the common configuration are by default reflected in all the Integrations, hence making it possible for the admins to make changes in configurations such as credentials in one place, rather than making those changes at individual integration.

Hey there, are there any plans to provide the functionality to maintain integrations via Postman API? We create Monitors via API and want to integrate the metrics with Datadog. So I believe our case is just another use case for what @clarkritchie requested.

Cheers André
