#ICYDK: I have numerous tools that help me create OpenAPIs from the APIs I stumble across each day. Ideally I’m crawling, scraping, harvesting, and auto-generating OpenAPIs, but inevitably the process gets a little manual. To help reduce friction in these manual processes, I try to have a variety of services, tools, and scripts I can use to make my life easier, when it comes to create a machine-readable definition of an API I am using — in this scenario it is the xignite CloudAlerts API.
One way I’ll create an OpenAPI from a simple GET API request, providing me with a machine-readable definition of the surface area of that API, is using Postman. When you have the URL copied onto your clipboard, open up your Postman, and paste the URL with all the query parameters present. https://goo.gl/23Qmxb
