# Set Up Postman, Import the Files, and Get the Token

You've configured your environment file and set up a connected app. The next task is to set up Postman and use it to get the session token from the org.

1.  Go to [www.postman.com/downloads](https://www.postman.com/downloads/).

2.  Click **Try the Web Version**.

3.  Enter an **Email**, **Username**, and **Password**, then click Create free account.

4.  Type your name, then click **Continue** twice.

5.  From the Home page, click **Create New**, then click **HTTP Request**.

6.  Click **Import**, drag your collection file into the Import window, and click **Import** in the window.

7.  Click **Import**, drag your environment file into the Import window, and click **Import** in the window.

8.  Click **Collections**, expand **Vlocity Digital Commerce APIs Collection**, and click **SFDC OAuth Username Password**.

9.  Change **No Environment** to the name of the environment you uploaded.

10. Click **Send**. The response looks something like this:

    ```nolang
    {
      "access_token": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx",
      "instance_url": "https://demo.my.salesforce.com",
      "id": "https://login.salesforce.com/id/.../...",
      "token_type": "Bearer",
      "issued_at": "1632504402777",
      "signature": "wNsUOlj65HMf8vqbDwm8bRnsK"
    }
    ```


**note:** Note: If you create your org in Summer ’23 or later, the OAuth 2.0 username-password flow is blocked by default. To enable the username-password flow, from Setup, select OAuth and OpenID Connect Settings, and select Allow OAuth Username-Password Flows.


11. Save the `access_token` value for use in a subsequent task. [Use the access_token for the session locally](https://blog.postman.com/collaborating-oauth-postman/).
