the easy way to put a path variable in Postman is your case is "/:code"
select post -> add the url -> select body -> choose raw -> select JSON(application/json) -> add your json data -> click send
You can refer official documentation :
Please go to charpter URL .
Some API endpoints use path variables. You can work with those in Postman. Below is an example of a URL with a path variable:
To edit the path variable, click on Params to see it already entered as the key. Update the value as needed. For example, :entity can be “user” in this specific case. Postman also gives you suggestions to autocomplete the URL.
