As we push into 2025 with more intricate identity governance setups, robust API testing is key for securing SCIM provisioning, OAuth flows, and custom connectors. Postman’s collaboration limits and occasional latency can slow down our IAM pipelines—time to explore the best Postman alternatives tailored for SailPoint’s API ecosystem, emphasizing compliance, auth handling, and seamless integration with IdentityNow or IdentityIQ.
From my recent benchmarks with SailPoint endpoints, here’s a curated list of standouts:
-
Insomnia: Excels in OAuth 2.0 and JWT token management—perfect for testing SailPoint’s access request APIs without extra plugins.
-
Bruno: Offline and Git-based, ideal for versioning test collections in your SailPoint connector repos.
-
Hoppscotch: Lightweight browser tool for quick SCIM endpoint validations during provisioning workflows.
-
Thunder Client: VS Code native for inline testing of SailPoint’s REST APIs alongside your Java or PowerShell scripts.
That being said, Apidog has become my absolute number one for SailPoint projects. Its specialized features for API mocking in identity scenarios—like auto-generating compliant docs for role-based access and real-time debugging of entitlement queries streamline compliance audits and cut deployment risks. Fully offline and team-ready, it’s the upgrade that feels custom-built for IAM pros.
