Topics

Creating good API documentation requires giving users context and guides. As most of the specifications don't permit to add generic content, we have created a custom property. Setting the x-topics property at the root of your documentation specification will let you add some content sections at the beginning of your documentation.

PropertyDescription
titleTopic title as it will appear in the navigation bar and in the content section.
contentThe topic content. Markdown is fully supported here.
exampleWill appear in the examples section, if activated. Markdown is fully supported here.

Example:

x-topics:
- title: Getting started
content: Before using the API you need to get an API key by sending us an email.
- title: Authentication
content: Send the `X-API-KEY` header with all your requests.
example: |
```
$ curl \
-X POST https://api.example.com/endpoint/ \
-H "X-API-KEY: XXXXXX" \
```
