API governance is no longer a back-office documentation exercise. Leading platform teams are now expected to enforce standards at developer velocity, provide live portfolio visibility, and prepare APIs for AI agents that can’t work around inconsistency.

This guide shows how enterprises can move from documented standards to enforced workflows, closing the governance gap before API sprawl, regulatory pressure, and AI adoption amplify it.

Access the guide to learn how modern API teams build governance programs that scale.

What this guide covers

Each chapter walks you through:

• The six governance problems that compound at enterprise scale
• The five-stage governance journey: Assess, Standardize, Enforce, Distribute, and Mature
• The metrics that prove whether your governance program is working
• How Postman helps teams enforce standards, improve visibility, and prepare APIs for agent consumption
• Practical steps to close the enforcement gap this month

By the end, you’ll understand how to turn API governance from a static policy into a developer-ready workflow built for platform engineering and compliance in the AI era.
