postman导出请求url,Postman生成的代码中的postman-token是什么？

During last days I used postman to explore a REST interface. Also I used Postman for code generation of REST querys. Whatever the target programminlanguage is, Postman will always add a postman-token attribute in the header. Why is it there?

See for example PHP Curl:

$curl = curl_init();

curl_setopt_array($curl, array(CURLOPT_URL => "https://myURL.com,

CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER => true,

CURLOPT_ENCODING => "",

CURLOPT_MAXREDIRS => 10,

CURLOPT_TIMEOUT => 30,

CURLOPT_HTTP_VERSION => CURL_HTTP_VERSION_1_1,

CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST => "GET",

CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER => array(

"authorization: Basic abcdefghijklmnop",

"cache-control: no-cache",

"postman-token: wt53gwg-e9bb-645d-g53d-e42f8765aut0"

),

));

$response = curl_exec($curl);

$err = curl_error($curl);

curl_close($curl);

if ($err) {

echo "cURL Error #:" . $err;

} else {

echo $response;

}

解决方案This is primarily used to bypass a bug in Chrome. If an XMLHttpRequest is pending and another request is sent with the same parameters then Chrome returns the same response for both of them. Sending a random token avoids this issue. This can also help you distinguish between request on the server side.
