Overview

The fastest way to explore and test RB2B APIs is through our interactive Postman workspace at https://postman.api.rb2b.com/

This workspace includes all available RB2B API endpoints, preconfigured request examples, and built-in authentication fields — allowing you to make live API calls without writing code.

Before You Begin

Before testing any RB2B API endpoints, make sure you have:

  • An active RB2B APIs account

  • Your API key (found under API Keys in your dashboard)

  • At least 100 credits available (purchased during registration or from the Billing page)

💡 Tip: If you haven’t signed up yet, see Registering for RB2B APIs for instructions.

Step 1: Open the RB2B APIs Postman Workspace

Visit https://postman.api.rb2b.com/ to open the RB2B APIs public workspace.

You can:

  • Explore endpoints directly in your browser, or

  • Click “Run in Postman” to open the collection in your local Postman app.

Step 2: Set Your API Key

  1. In Postman, open the RB2B APIs collection.

  2. Navigate to the Variables tab.

  3. Locate the variable named api_key.

  4. Paste your RB2B API key as the value.

  5. Click Save.

Your key will automatically populate the Authorization header in all sample requests.

⚠️ Important: Your API key is private. Do not share it publicly or embed it in client-side code.

Step 3: Choose an Endpoint to Test

Within the collection, you’ll find all available endpoints grouped by category — such as Identification and Enrichment APIs.

Example endpoints include:

  • IP to HEM

  • HEM to Business Profile

  • IP to Company

Click any endpoint to view its:

  • URL and HTTP method

  • Required parameters and body examples

  • Sample responses and schema

Step 4: Send a Test Request

  1. Select an endpoint (for example, IP to HEM).

  2. Switch to the Body tab and edit the sample input as needed.
    Example:

    {   "ip_address" : "{{ip_address}}" }
  3. Click Send to execute the request.

If your key and parameters are valid, you’ll receive a JSON response with your result data.

Step 5: Review Your Results

Review your results in Postman and compare to the examples of the individual APIs' successful and empty responses as well as malformed requests.
