Swagger
Swagger is an open-source framework by SmartBear for designing, building, documenting, and consuming RESTful APIs using the OpenAPI Specification. Originally created by Wordnik in 2011, Swagger became the OpenAPI Specification (OAS) in 2016 under the OpenAPI Initiative. The Swagger toolset includes Swagger UI for interactive documentation, Swagger Editor for writing OpenAPI specs, and Swagger Codegen for generating client SDKs and server stubs. The latest OpenAPI standard version is 3.2.0 (released September 2025).
More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.
API Evangelist profiles Swagger the way a machine reads it — 16 machine-readable artifacts across 5 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Swagger scores 24.6/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 3/100 (human only). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Swagger
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Swagger. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 5
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.
Swagger UI
Swagger UI renders OpenAPI specifications as interactive API documentation, allowing developers to explore and test API endpoints directly in the browser. It generates a rich HT...
Swagger Editor
Swagger Editor is a browser-based editor for writing and validating OpenAPI and AsyncAPI specifications with real-time preview and validation. Available as a standalone web appl...
Swagger Codegen
Swagger Codegen generates server stubs, client SDKs, and API documentation from OpenAPI specifications in over 40 languages including Python, Java, JavaScript, Go, Ruby, C#, Swi...
Swagger Parser
Swagger Parser (swagger-parser) is a JavaScript library for parsing, validating, and dereferencing OpenAPI 2.0 and 3.x specifications. Available as an npm package.
OpenAPI Specification
The OpenAPI Specification (formerly Swagger Specification) is a language-agnostic standard for describing HTTP APIs. The current versions are OAS 3.1.1 (stable) and OAS 3.2.0 (l...
Pricing Plans 1
Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.
Published pricing tiers and plan structures.
Rate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.
Swagger Rate Limits
RATE LIMITSFinOps 1
Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.
Cost, billing, and metering signals for API financial operations.
Swagger Finops
FINOPSSemantic Vocabularies 1
JSON-LD contexts give the data shared meaning across APIs. We profile them because semantics are what let a machine reconcile 'customer' here with 'customer' somewhere else.
JSON-LD contexts and semantic vocabularies used across these APIs.
Swagger Context
JSON-LDSpectral Rules 2
Governance rulesets we run against this provider's specs — the automated checks behind parts of the score. Profiling them makes the quality bar explicit and re-runnable, not a matter of opinion.

Standalone JSON Schema definitions describe the data models behind the API. We profile them so the shapes are validatable on their own — useful long after a single request is forgotten.

JSON Structure captures the data shapes in a form built for tooling — a complement to JSON Schema that keeps the model machine-legible.

JSON STRUCTUREExamples 1
Real request and response payloads are what turn a spec from abstract into obvious — and they're one of the twelve things an agent needs to call an API correctly on the first try.
Example request and response payloads for these APIs.

EXAMPLESecurity Posture 1
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.

SDKs, sample code, and the tooling you integrate with
Access & Security 1
Authentication, authorization, and security posture

The organization behind the API
← All providers · Data indexed from github.com/api-evangelist/swagger · machine-readable index on apis.io
This is an independent, third-party profile of Swagger, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.
The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.
Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
