Your API docs deserve the same review process as your API code.
LinkedIn
Teams that use @Postman to build and test APIs often end up with docs that lag behind the actual implementation.
The API changes. The collection updates. But the published reference site? That's a manual deployment, often handled by a different person, after a different process.
Netlify Deploy Previews solve this for documentation sites the same way they solve it for product UIs: every PR gets its own isolated preview URL. Your docs reviewers can check the rendered output before anything ships to production.
When the API and its documentation deploy together — reviewed together, merged together — you close the gap.

The developer portal is the product. Treat it like one.
LinkedIn
If you've ever worked at a company that treats its developer portal as an afterthought, you know the pain: docs that are 6 months stale, broken code samples, missing auth flows.
For API-first companies like @Postman, the developer experience *is* the product. The reference docs, the quickstart guides, the changelog — they're user-facing surfaces that need real engineering rigor.
Netlify brings the same deployment discipline to developer portals that it brings to product frontends:
— Per-PR preview environments for doc contributors
— Instant cache invalidation on publish
— Branch-based staging for major doc overhauls
Your API deserves a portal that ships like software.

The testing gap nobody talks about: API behavior vs. API documentation.
LinkedIn
API testing tools like @Postman are excellent at verifying that endpoints behave correctly.
But there's a second surface that breaks just as often: the documentation site that explains those endpoints to external developers.
A broken auth example in your docs has the same downstream impact as a broken endpoint — frustrated developers, failed integrations, support tickets.
The fix for the docs problem is the same as the fix for the code problem: make it part of the PR process. Netlify Deploy Previews spin up a live preview of your documentation changes on every PR so reviewers can catch the broken example before it ships.
Test the API. Preview the docs. Ship both together.
