API Hub for Design Vendor Extensions

API Hub for Design supports the following vendor extensions for OpenAPI.

Interactive documentation

x-example

Applies to: OpenAPI 2.0

Used to specify example values for path, query, header, and form parameters. These example values will be used to populate the "try it out" form in interactive API documentation.

parameters:
  - in: query
    name: q
    type: string
    description: Search string
    x-example: swagger    # <-------

x-tokenName

The name of the token to be extracted from the OAuth 2.0 token endpoint response and subsequently used in the Authorization: Bearer TOKEN header. If not specified, API Hub for Design will use the standard access_token.

A typical example is the Google OAuth 2.0 flow, which returns an extra JWT id_token containing user identity information:

{
  "access_token": "...",
  "expires_in": 3599,
  "scope": "scope1 scope2",
  "token_type": "Bearer",
  "id_token": "....."
}

If your API uses Google id_token instead of access_token for authentication, add x-tokenName: id_token to the OAuth security scheme definition:

securityDefinitions:
  google_oauth:
    type: oauth2
    description: See https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/OAuth2UserAgent
    flow: accessCode
    authorizationUrl: https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth
    tokenUrl: https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v4/token
    x-tokenName: id_token    # <-------
    scopes: {}
