View Active API

Select an API in the side navigation panel to view its contents in the main screen.

Resolved State

The APIs in the provider view of SwaggerHub Portal are in an unresolved state. The API is in a resolved state after a Preview or Publish action. A resolved state means that the APIs also show:

  • Contents of external references, if there are external references in the API.

  • Domains information, if domains are referenced in the API in SwaggerHub.

Note

You can only view APIs in SwaggerHub Portal. To edit APIs, go to SwaggerHub.

Note

Syntax highlighting is only visible in the consumer view.

Insert Endpoint

Select Insert Endpoint to add a URL for a specific endpoint to the page you're editing. The endpoint appears where the cursor is or at the top of the page if there's no cursor. The API opens at that endpoint when a consumer clicks on the link.
