# Bruno collections

Explore and develop requests to APIs with Bruno.

[Bruno](https://www.usebruno.com/) is a desktop application for API development which is similar to Postman. With Bruno, you can send requests to HTTP APIs, store request templates, and share them with others.

commercetools provides [Bruno collections](https://github.com/commercetools/commercetools-api-reference/tree/main/bruno) for the APIs, including the [Audit Log](/api/history/overview/), [Checkout API](/checkout), and [Import API](/api/import-export/overview.md). These collections contain a complete library of templates for every possible request to API endpoints.

commercetools Bruno collections are automatically generated from the latest [API reference](/dev-tooling/api-specifications.md) and include all supported endpoints and update actions with example bodies.

As Bruno collections are file-based, you will update them when you pull the latest commits from the repository.

To use the Bruno collections, you must download your API Client credentials and save them in the `environments` folder of the Bruno collection. You can then select this environment in Bruno and use **auth > Client Credentials** to receive an access token. This token is automatically used by further requests in this collection.

After [creating an API Client](/api/getting-started/create-api-client.md#create-an-api-client), you can download an environments file for the collection by selecting **Bruno (Postman alternative)** from the drop-down.
