postman send variable code example

Example 1: postman environment variables in body

{ "customer_id" : "{{cust_id}}" }

Example 2: collection variable api

Only accessible within the same collection and
can not be accessed anywhere else
COLLECTION variables are available throughout 
the requests in a collection and are independent
of environments, so do not change based on the selected environment.
I use collection variables when
I use single environment like url details.
We can refer to the variable by using {{}}(double curly brace)
and  it can be used anywhere
