API launch

Generate RapidAPI listing copy from OpenAPI

Use an OpenAPI document to produce marketplace copy, curl examples, a Postman collection, and cleaner docs assets.

Problem

Marketplace launches slow down when every asset is hand-written.

API listings, quickstarts, curl examples, and Postman collections are easy to write once and let drift. Starting from OpenAPI keeps those launch assets tied to the contract developers actually call.

When to use it

  • You are preparing a RapidAPI listing or refreshing an existing one.
  • You need endpoint summaries, curl examples, and a Postman collection from one source.
  • You want launch copy that follows the API contract instead of a separate marketing document.

First call

Run a small request and inspect the response.

curl -X POST 'https://openapi-launch-pack-api.linkridge.net/v1/openapi/analyze' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'X-API-Key: <your-api-key>' \
  -d '{
  "target_server_url": "https://demo-api.example.com",
  "spec": {
    "openapi": "3.0.3",
    "info": {
      "title": "Demo API",
      "version": "1.0.0",
      "description": "A small API used to demonstrate launch-pack generation."
    },
    "paths": {
      "/health": {
        "get": {
          "summary": "Health check",
          "operationId": "health",
          "responses": {
            "200": {
              "description": "OK"
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}'

Use RapidAPI for marketplace auth, plans, and interactive testing.
