Getting Session Expired Message with Postman

I have setup a connected app and I am using Postman to query some data but I keep getting the following message:
  
[
    {
        "message": "Session expired or invalid",
        "errorCode": "INVALID_SESSION_ID"
    }
]
I can successfully get the session id in Postman and using it in the request but have tried other settings in Postman and it still doesn't work. Need some help please.

Silly me, I had the wrong URL and that's why it wasn't working. Lesson learnt - make sure the URL is correct and use the one that's returned with the authentication response.

As mentioned in https://developer.salesforce.com/forums/?id=906F000000099xAIAQ can you try sending the password with security token and see if it works.

Looking forward to hearing back from you.

As I mentioned, I am able to get the session id without any problem. The password and securty token should not be needed after that. Its once I start using the sesison id,  I am getting the error above.
