# View ABS Reports in Postman

To view the reports, complete the following steps:

1. Download the ABS Environment and ABS Reports JSON files from **API Reports Using Postman** folder on Ping Identity [download](https://www.pingidentity.com/en/resources/downloads/pingintelligence.html) site. These configuration files will be used by Postman.

2. [Download](https://www.getpostman.com) and install the Postman application 6.2.5 or higher.

3. In Postman, **import** the two Ping Identity files downloaded in step 1 by clicking the Import button.

4. After importing the files, click the gear [icon: gear, set=fa]button in the upper right corner.

5. In the **MANAGE ENVIRONMENTS** pop-up window, click **ABS\_4.3\_Environment**

6. In the pop-up window, configure the following values and then click **Update**

   * **Server**: IP address of the ABS node for which the `dashboard_node` was set to `true` in the `abs.properties `file.

   * **Port**: Port number of the ABS node.

   * **Access\_Key\_Header** and **Secret\_Key\_Header**: Use the Admin user or Restricted user header. A Restricted user sees obfuscated value of OAuth token, cookie and API keys. For more information of different types of user, see [ABS users for API reports](../abs_ai_engine/pingintelligence_abs_users_api_reports.html)

   * **Access\_Key** and **Secret\_Key**: The Access Key and Secret Key configured in the `opt/pingidentity/mongo/abs_init.js` for either admin or restricted user. Make sure that access key and secret key corresponds to the admin or restricted user header configured.

   * **API\_Name**: The name of the API for which you want to generate the reports.

   * **Later\_Date**: A date which is more recent in time. For example, if the query range is between March 12 and March 14, then the later date would be March 14.

   * **Earlier\_Date**: A date which is past in time. For example, if the query range is between March 12 and March 14, then the earlier date would be March 12.
