Use this interactive demo to learn how to rename a collection inside your Postman workspace.

Quick summary

Renaming a Postman collection takes just a few clicks inside your workspace. Navigate to the correct workspace, open the Collections tab, and edit the collection name and description directly from the Overview panel.


Steps

  1. Head over to Workspaces on the top left of Postman.
  2. Navigate to the workspace where you want to rename the collection.
  3. Look for the Collections tab in the left sidebar.
  4. Click on Overview to find the name of your collection, then click the existing name to begin editing it.
  5. Click on the existing collection name to make it editable and type your new name.
  6. Add or update the Description field to reflect the changes in your renamed collection.

📌 Why this matters

Keeping Postman collections accurately named is essential for API teams managing multiple projects and workspaces. A clear collection name ensures developers can quickly locate, share, and collaborate on the right set of API requests without confusion. Renaming collections directly from the workspace Overview panel makes it easy to keep your API documentation organized as projects evolve. This workflow helps teams maintain a clean, searchable Postman workspace that scales with their development process.
