Ability to use Client Certs Programmatically
Currently, use of Client Certs in Postman requires manually saving and pointing to a physical file accessible to the local system.
For apis that use Cert-based auth (where certs are generated repeatedly) and in which subsequent api calls are dependent, this is a slow, manual process that also prevents any sort of automation for test suites that require these constantly changing certs.
Propose a method whereby .key and .crt values set as Postman Environment Variables could be passed as valid certs like when using the Settings\Certificates method. This would remove the need to repeatedly create .crt and .key files manually and point to them in Settings/Certificates. Additionally, it would presumably allow creation of automated test suites where new certs are generated, used, then discarded for each run.
