About Postman
Postman is on a steady weekly bug-fix cadence with quiet expansion in Monitors and API governance.
The 12.8.x and 12.9.x release stream is dominated by minor bug fixes with the occasional substantive change folded in: Monitor regions expanded across APAC and Europe, Flows canvas regression fixed, and changelog version tagging added so API spec changes can be labeled by release. The publication style is uniformly version-only with sparse content, which masks what's actually shipping in any given build.
