Case Study: Box achieves rapid API mastery and faster developer enablement with Postman

Mastering the Box API with Postman

Box needed a fast, code-free way to learn, validate and demonstrate the capabilities of its RESTful API as staff with non‑technical backgrounds ramped into product and customer‑facing roles. Rory Paap, a Senior Sales Engineer at Box, adopted Postman and its collections feature to explore authentication, list items and reproduce every Box API call, turning API discovery into an accessible learning process.

Using Postman collections, Rory recreated Box API calls, verified requests in minutes, reproduced bugs for engineering, and built demos and training artifacts for colleagues and customers. Postman enabled measurable impact at Box: what once required deep technical know‑how became answerable “in a matter of minutes,” and Rory credits Postman with helping him progress from a non‑technical hire to a Senior Sales Engineer in fewer than two and a half years.
