ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This provision defines the operational scope of the Public API Network as a public catalog and allocates the responsibility for content review to the publishing user rather than to Postman. The clause establishes a clear boundary between public and private API publication mechanisms within the platform.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Users publishing to the Public API Network acknowledge that their content will be publicly accessible and bear responsibility for reviewing content before publication to prevent exposure of sensitive data, credentials, personal information, or proprietary materials. This places the obligation for content vetting on the user, not on Postman's systems.
