    HELLO Anurag

    The authorization process verifies whether you have permission to access the data you want from the server. When you send a request, you often have to include parameters to ensure the request has permission to access and return the data you want. Postman provides authorization types that make it easy for you to handle authentication protocols in Postman native apps.

    OAuth 2.0 is an authorization type that enables you to approve an application that contacts another application for you without exposing your password.

    OAuth2.0 is an open authorization protocol, which allows accessing the resources of the resource owner by enabling the client applications on HTTP services such as Facebook, GitHub, etc. It allows sharing of resources stored on one site to another site without using their credentials. It uses username and password tokens instead.

    he authorization process verifies whether you have permission to access the data you want from the server. When you send a request, you often have to include parameters to ensure the request has permission to access and return the data you want.
