For other learners, I’m reiterating the solution here. 

As per the learning course, it is recommended to use "baseURL" instead of "baseUrl.
This appears in two places in Postman.

  1. When setting up the  environment variables.
  2. When setting up the authorization for the collection.

Both places should use it as "baseURL".
 
And you should save it every time you make changes to both Collection and the Environment.
