Postman: How to view response of a previous request from history?

In the left panel shows the History tab, which I can view previous requests I've made. When I click any of the previous requests, it displays the URL and key-values used, but doesn't show the response.

Is there a way to view the old response?

Postman (v10.21)

toggling this on would allow for future requests to be saved automatically. Sadly older requests would only show the status code without the body of the request. unless you manually saved it

Yes, there is a way to show previous responses but not via History tab.

What you should do is:

  1. To Save your response when you get it: enter image description here
  2. To select in and click on it: enter image description here
  3. Then you'll see your previously saved response: enter image description here

Update:

In recent updates Postman added possibility to view saved responses from History tab: enter image description here

In the latest app, v6.5.2, you can now toggle the Save Responses options in the History tab in the left sidebar. Once turned on, clicking on a request in the history would also show the response that was received for that request.

Save responses in history

Note that only requests sent after the toggle was turned on would have the saved responses.
