Swagger-UI Response Content Type - swagger

Is it possible to add the Response Content Type select box without creating the Response Class (Status 200) schema?
My web services return JSON or XML format depending on the accept header. I need this dropdown after that.

You can populate the valued for the 'Response Content Type' dropdown with the produces property of the Swagger definition:
---
swagger: '2.0'
info:
version: 0.0.0
title: Simple API
produces:
- application/xml
- application/json
paths:
/:
get:
responses:
200:
description: OK
You'll eventually need to define your response schema as well, but that definition can be independent of the response content type (json vs xml).

How to add Accept, Authorization or Content-Type in OpenAPI 3.0?

My spec is as below.
/path:
/user:
get:
parameters:
- name: Authorization
in: header
required: true
schema:
type: string
Problem is that it is giving me the below warning. I get the same warning if I add Content-Type or Accept header.
Header parameters named Authorization are ignored. Use securitySchemes and security to define the Authorization
I tried the below but I don't see Authorization header added in the request. I am using https://editor.swagger.io to create the spec.
/path:
/user:
get:
parameters:
- name: Authorization
in: header
required: true
schema:
type: string
security:
- my_auth: []
components:
securitySchemes:
my_auth:
type: http
scheme: bearer
bearerFormat: JWT
Any help is appreciated. Thanks !!
In the request parameters, there are operation's specific parameters.
The general purpose HTTP headers aren't defined here because:
Content-Type is defined by the request body content. If there are multiple content types, the consumer has to choose and set Content-Type accordingly.
Accept is similar; it only relates to the response message.
For security, we do not describe the Authorization header but instead define the security scheme (see docs for more).
You may use the description property to explain how to use these headers with your API. However, if your API follows standards, it should not be necessary.
Once you have added the security schema to your API definition, you can use the Authorization function of Swagger Editor. So, you will add your token and trigger "Try it out." Swagger will populate the Authorization header; see the attached screenshot.

Swagger Open API Custom header

I am facing fellow two problems related to Swagger open API
I am not able to pass custom header through swagger open API while calling my API, please suggest how can we pass custom header, through swagger open API.
When I added POI dependency on my project's pom.xml, it stopped working through swagger open API, however, it is working with the postman, please suggest what could be the issue.
From Describing Parameters:
An API call may require that custom headers be sent with an HTTP request. OpenAPI lets you define custom request headers as in: header parameters. For example, suppose, a call to GET /ping requires the X-Request-ID header:
GET /ping HTTP/1.1
Host: example.com
X-Request-ID: 77e1c83b-7bb0-437b-bc50-a7a58e5660ac
Using OpenAPI 3.0, you would define this operation as follows:
paths:
/ping:
get:
summary: Checks if the server is alive
parameters:
- in: header
name: X-Request-ID
schema:
type: string
format: uuid
required: true

Swagger generated Java Client has no overloaded calls, even though the query parameter is marked as optional

I'm introducing an optional "query parameter" (with default value) for one of my API endpoint ( i.e. /foo2) but hoping that existing API consumers don't have to make any changes in their application when they regenerate the java client stub from the new swagger file.
I was expecting that the generated java client will offer overloaded methods, to operate with and without a method parameter, so that my existing API consumers can work without any changes to their call. At the same time, they can switch to its more generic offering.
public void foo2Get() throws ApiException {
public void foo2Get(String type) throws ApiException {
But it generates ONLY the latter. I don't see the former.
At the same time, generated python client from same swagger throws a var arg and this way it more flexible and hence old and new offerings will work without any issues.
def foo2_get(self, **kwargs):
(swagger sample used: attached)
** Description**
Is there a way to overcome this limitation with java code generator.

Error testing API with Swagger response header 405

So I'm fairly new to creating API documentation and I'm having some difficulty creating a new entry via the swagger UI. I keep getting a 405 response. I have no idea what the issue is, I've become code blind. The link to the API is below. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.
https://swaggerhub.com/apis/Sharper-Web-Dev/test/1.0.0
Your definition specifies SwaggerHub's mock server (virtserver.swaggerhub.com) as the target server. The mock server generates the responses based on the responses defined in your API definition. POST /charity defines just the 405 response, that's why the mock returns 405.
To get a "normal" response, you need to define a 200 OK or 201 Created response, and add the response schema (or response examples) describing the desired JSON structure.
paths:
/charity:
post:
...
produces:
- application/json
parameters:
...
responses:
200:
description: OK
schema:
$ref: "#/definitions/MyResponseSchema"
405:
description: "Invalid input"

How to provide example value to a Response Body of content-type: text/html in Swagger (to test with dredd)

I have an API call which responds 200 OK and returns an HTML. I would like to add this to my API documentation
(especially since i validate it using dredd and unless i provide it with the expected response body the test fails). How
would i do this in Swagger?
--- More details ---
My Response to an API call is 200 OK and with a one line Response Body:
<html><body>You are being redirected.</body></html>
I can easily define the Response Body in Blueprint in the following form:
+ Response 302 (text/html; charset=utf-8)
+ Body
`<html><body>You are being redirected.</body></html>`
But i'm not sure how to do this in Swagger. Almost all examples i can find are for application/json responses (understandably) and i'm having trouble
guessing the correct syntax for this kind of response.
The relevant swagger text in my document is this (so far without specifying the response body, so with an empty body dredd
fails because the response body should be <html><body>You are being redirected.</body></html>):
# this is my API spec in YAML
swagger: '2.0'
info:
title: My API (Swagger)
description: blablabla
version: "1.0.0"
# the domain of the service
host: my.domain.com
# array of all schemes that your API supports
schemes:
- https
# will be prefixed to all paths
basePath: /
produces:
- application/json; charset=utf-8
paths:
/users/password:
post:
summary: Password Reset
description: |
Handles Reset password for existing user.
consumes:
- application/x-www-form-urlencoded
produces:
- text/html; charset=utf-8
parameters:
- name: "user[email]"
description: email
in: formData
required: true
type: string
default: "user#gmail.com"
tags:
- Reset Password
responses:
200:
description: Success
Please comment if you have any suggestions on this. Thanks!
Figured it out. the response object has a field called "examples" which allows to show examples to your API response.
The syntax is clearly shown in the specification and basically says you need to identify the MIME-type for the example response, in my case text/html and the value is the actual text.
so like this:
responses:
200:
description: success and returns some html text
examples:
text/html:
<html><body>Your HTML text</body></html>
That's it. Now whether or not dredd knows to take this value and compare it is another story. their docs state that any response other than JSON is validated as plain text so this should work.
Hope this helped.
In case someone needs this in the openapi version 3.0 you can do it this way:
Save your HTML. For example give this at the end of your file:
components:
schemas:
error401:
type: string
example: '<html>HTML text</html>'
Then you can reference this scheme in responses wherever you want. For example:
responses:
'401':
description: Error
content:
text/html:
schema:
$ref: '#/components/schemas/error401'
