Postman only has a v1 and v2 data format. No proprietary format. The formats and the SDKs [1] to use them are also open source. The transformer for converting between versions is also open source [2]. Importing works fine for me. You could leave an issue on Github if you found a bug while importing.

This is why we developed the Postman Collection format. It's very simple, and expressive. More importantly, it's a way to impose _less_ constraints on the API Designer, while also being richly documented. Here's an example of a very simple collection: https://github.com/postmanlabs/postman-collection-transforme... But, you can also go and have something like https://github.com/postmanlabs/postman-collection-transforme..., which is very well documented. The generated documentation for this is available too: https://docs.postman-echo.com Disclaimer: I work at Postman.
