Currently doesn't support templates. #### x-tagGroups | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :-----------: | :---------- | | x-tagGroups | [ [Tag Group Object](#tagGroupObject) ] | A list of tag groups | ###### How to use with Redoc `x-tagGroups` is used to group tags in the side menu. Before you use `x-tagGroups`, make sure you **add all tags to a group**, since a tag that is not in a group, **will not be displayed** at all! #### Tag Group Object Information about tags group ###### Fixed fields | Field Name | Type | Description | | :---------- | :--------: | :---------- | | name | string | The group name | | tags | [ string ] | List of tags to include in this group ###### x-tagGroups example json ```json { "x-tagGroups": [ { "name": "User Management", "tags": ["Users", "API keys", "Admin"] }, { "name": "Statistics", "tags": ["Main Stats", "Secondary Stats"] } ] } ``` yaml ```yaml x-tagGroups: - name: User Management tags: - Users - API keys - Admin - name: Statistics tags: - Main Stats - Secondary Stats ``` #### x-ignoredHeaderParameters | Field Name | Type | Description | | :-------------------------- | :-----------: | :---------- | | x-ignoredHeaderParameters | [ string ] | A list of ignored headers | ###### How to use with Redoc Use `x-ignoredHeaderParameters` to specify header parameter names which are ignored by ReDoc. ###### x-ignoredHeaderParameters example ```yaml swagger: '2.0' info: ... tags: [...] x-ignoredHeaderParameters: - Accept - User-Agent - X-Test-Header ``` ### Info Object Extends the OpenAPI [Info Object](http://swagger.io/specification/#infoObject) #### x-logo | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :-----------: | :---------- | | x-logo | [Logo Object](#logoObject) | The information about API logo | ###### How to use with Redoc `x-logo` is used to specify API logo. The corresponding image is displayed just above the side-menu. #### Logo Object The information about API logo ###### Fixed fields | Field Name | Type | Description | | :-------------- | :------: | :---------- | | url | string | The URL pointing to the spec logo. MUST be in the format of a URL. It SHOULD be an absolute URL so your API definition is usable from any location | backgroundColor | string | background color to be used. MUST be RGB color in [hexadecimal format] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_colors#Hex_triplet) | altText | string | Text to use for alt tag on the logo. Defaults to 'logo' if nothing is provided. | href | string | The URL pointing to the contact page. Default to 'info.contact.url' field of the OAS. ###### x-logo example json ```json { "info": { "version": "1.0.0", "title": "Swagger Petstore", "x-logo": { "url": "https://redocly.github.io/redoc/petstore-logo.png", "backgroundColor": "#FFFFFF", "altText": "Petstore logo" } } } ``` yaml ```yaml info: version: "1.0.0" title: "Swagger Petstore" x-logo: url: "https://redocly.github.io/redoc/petstore-logo.png" backgroundColor: "#FFFFFF" altText: "Petstore logo" ``` ### Tag Object Extends the OpenAPI [Tag Object](http://swagger.io/specification/#tagObject) #### x-traitTag | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :------: | :---------- | | x-traitTag | boolean | In Swagger two operations can have multiple tags. This property distinguishes between tags that are used to group operations (default) from tags that are used to mark operation with certain trait (`true` value) | ###### How to use with Redoc Tags that have `x-traitTag` set to `true` are listed in the side-menu but don't have any subitems (operations). It also renders the `description` tag. This is useful for handling out common things like Pagination, Rate-Limits, etc. ###### x-traitTag example json ```json { "name": "Pagination", "description": "Pagination description (can use markdown syntax)", "x-traitTag": true } ``` yaml ```yaml name: Pagination description: Pagination description (can use markdown syntax) x-traitTag: true ``` #### x-displayName | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :------: | :---------- | | x-displayName | string | Defines the text that is used for this tag in the menu and in section headings | ### Operation Object vendor extensions Extends the OpenAPI [Operation Object](http://swagger.io/specification/#operationObject) #### x-codeSamples | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :------: | :---------- | | x-codeSamples | [ [Code Sample Object](#codeSampleObject) ] | A list of code samples associated with operation | ###### How to use with ReDoc `x-codeSamples` are rendered on the right panel in ReDoc. #### Code Sample Object Operation code sample ###### Fixed fields | Field Name | Type | Description | | :---------- | :------: | :----------- | | lang | string | Code sample language. Value should be one of the following [list](https://github.com/github/linguist/blob/master/lib/linguist/popular.yml) | | label | string? | Code sample label e.g. `Node` or `Python2.7`, _optional_, `lang` will be used by default | | source | string | Code sample source code | ###### Code Sample Object example json ```json { "lang": "JavaScript", "source": "console.log('Hello World');" } ``` yaml ```yaml lang: JavaScript source: console.log('Hello World'); ``` ### Parameter Object Extends the OpenAPI [Parameter Object](http://swagger.io/specification/#parameterObject) #### x-examples | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :------: | :---------- | | x-examples | [Example Object](http://swagger.io/specification/#exampleObject) | Object that contains examples for the request. Applies when `in` is `body` and mime-type is `application/json` | ###### How to use with ReDoc `x-examples` are rendered in the JSON tab on the right panel in ReDoc. ### Response Object vendor extensions Extends the OpenAPI [Response Object](https://swagger.io/specification/#responseObject) #### x-summary | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :------: | :---------- | | x-summary | string | a short summary of the response | ###### How to use with ReDoc If specified, you can use `x-summary` as the response button text, with description rendered under the button. ### Schema Object Extends the OpenAPI [Schema Object](http://swagger.io/specification/#schemaObject) #### x-nullable | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :------: | :---------- | | x-nullable | boolean | marks schema as a nullable | ###### How to use with ReDoc Schemas marked as `x-nullable` are marked in ReDoc with the label Nullable #### x-extendedDiscriminator **ATTENTION**: This is a ReDoc-specific vendor extension, and is not supported by other tools. | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :------: | :---------- | | x-extendedDiscriminator | string | specifies extended discriminator | ###### How to use with ReDoc ReDoc uses this vendor extension to solve name-clash issues with the standard `discriminator`. Value of this field specifies the field which will be used as a extended discriminator. ReDoc displays definition with selectpicker using which user can select value of the `x-extendedDiscriminator`-marked field. ReDoc displays the definition derived from the current (using `allOf`) and has `enum` with only one value which is the same as the selected value of the field specified as `x-extendedDiscriminator`. ###### x-extendedDiscriminator example ```yaml Payment: x-extendedDiscriminator: type type: object required: - type properties: type: type: string name: type: string CashPayment: allOf: - $ref: "#/definitions/Payment" - properties: type: type: string enum: - cash currency: type: string PayPalPayment: allOf: - $ref: "#/definitions/Payment" - properties: type: type: string enum: - paypal userEmail: type: string ``` In the example above, the names of definitions (`PayPalPayment`) are named differently than names in the payload (`paypal`) which is not supported by default `discriminator`. #### x-additionalPropertiesName **ATTENTION**: This is a ReDoc-specific vendor extension, and is not supported by other tools. Extends the `additionalProperties` property of the schema object. | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :------: | :---------- | | x-additionalPropertiesName | string | descriptive name of additional properties keys | ###### How to use with ReDoc ReDoc uses this extension to display a more descriptive property name in objects with `additionalProperties` when viewing the property list with an `object`. ###### x-additionalPropertiesName example ```yaml Player: required: - name properties: name: type: string additionalProperties: x-additionalPropertiesName: attribute-name type: string ``` #### x-explicitMappingOnly **ATTENTION**: This is ReDoc-specific vendor extension, and is not supported by other tools. Extends the `discriminator` property of the schema object. | Field Name | Type | Description | | :------------- | :------: | :---------- | | x-explicitMappingOnly | boolean | limit the discriminator selectpicker to the explicit mappings only | ###### How to use with ReDoc ReDoc uses this extension to filter the `discriminator` mappings shown in the selectpicker. When set to `true`, the selectpicker will only list the the explicitly defined mappings. When `false`, the default behavior is kept, i.e. explicit and implicit mappings will be shown. ###### x-explicitMappingOnly example ```yaml Pet: type: object required: - name - photoUrls discriminator: propertyName: petType x-explicitMappingOnly: true mapping: cat: "#/components/schemas/Cat" bee: "#/components/schemas/HoneyBee" ``` Will show in the selectpicker only the items `cat` and `bee`, even though the `Dog` class inherits from the `Pet` class.
