5. Set environment variable in endpoints.

    {{url}} in GET/POST/DELETE/ endpoints
    {{jwt_token}} in Headers:
        a) Select Authorization
        b) JWT {{jwt_token}}

    }

7. Authorization for POST and DELETE

- To delete an item by name. User need to register first.
- Then create POST /auth endpoint. POST following sample code to authenticate a registered user:
    {
        "username" : "username_with_which_you_registered",
        "password" : "password_with_which_you_registered"
    }
- After doing auth successfully. JWT token will be generated. Use that for deleting an item:
    --Select Authorization as Key in header, and Add JWT {{JWT}} in value.
