pm-shhh

A Chrome extension for hiding senstive Postman collection/environment variables during livestreams.

How to install

I'm too lazy to publish this on the Chrome webstore. You can install it locally instead.

1. Download the code in this repo

In directory of your choice:

git clone [email protected]:clairefro/pm-shhh.git

2. Open Chrome extensions menu

In Chrome URL bar, navigate to: chrome://extensions/

Make sure Dev mode is enabled in upper right

Click "Load unpacked" in upper left

Select the pm-shhh file folder to unpack

That's it.

You should now have the extension in your menu:

[Optional] Pin the extentsion

For easy access, pin the extension to your extensions bar. Click the puzzle piece icon in the Chrome extensions bar, and then the blue pin next to pm-shhh

Usage

Enabled

When the "Censor vars" setting is checked, values in the "Current Value" column of collection and environment variables will be hidden.

WARNING! Clicking to edit a value will reveal the value:

But it will be hidden again when you click away. Maybe in the future someone can add an option to hide this too...

Disabled

Unchecking the "Censor" setting will reveal the Current Value column values. This is normal Postman behavior.

Disclaimer

This extension hasn't been extensively tested. Don't sue me if you flash your sensitives to the world :O

It also relies on the Postman UI as of v9.0.9. If the UI changes in future versions, the code will need to change too.
