API documentation feature in Document360
The API documentation feature in Document360 provides a complete solution for creating and managing API references. With this feature, you can create high-quality API documentation that helps your users understand and consume your APIs effectively.
We have the most-wanted option named "Try it!" which allows the users to test the API endpoints within the Knowledge base site. Check our supported authorization techniques by clicking here.
You can create dedicated versions of your API documentation. The feature provides an intuitive interface for uploading API references as URLs or JSON/YAML files. After uploading the OpenAPI definition, the interactive API endpoint articles will be created in the Knowledge base portal. Now end users can access the "Try it!" option with the available endpoints, parameters, and responses in the API documentation's Knowledge base site.
You can generate code samples with the available programming languages to help users understand how to use the API. You can view responses in a more organized way.
