Atlas — API discovery, in the editor

Reads the backend you already have open, works out what its API actually is, and lets you call it — without leaving VS Code.

  • Every endpoint, grouped, with the request shape the analyser inferred.
  • Click a route to jump to its source. Every endpoint carries the file and line it was declared on.
  • Send requests to localhost, a container, or anything on your VPN. No proxy, no CORS, no separate process to install.
  • Database and models views — the tables and queries each endpoint touches.
  • Environments with {{variable}} substitution.

The analyser runs in the extension host, on your machine. Your source code is never uploaded.

Commands

Command
Atlas: Scan this project for endpoints Reads the open folder
Atlas: Open the API panel Reopens without rescanning

Settings

Setting Default
atlas.includeTests false Include test files when scanning

Status

Early. Express, NestJS, Fastify, Django, FastAPI, Spring, ASP.NET and Laravel are recognised; Node and .NET are the most accurate today.

Usage counts

Atlas reports a few anonymous events so we know how many people actually use it — activations, scans and requests sent. Each carries a count, a framework name and the editor version, and nothing else.

Never sent: your code, file paths, project or repository names, endpoint URLs, request bodies, responses, or environment values. None of it is even available to the part of the extension that reports.

It respects your editor's own setting: if telemetry.telemetryLevel is off, nothing is sent regardless. To turn off only Atlas's, set atlas.telemetry to false.

Something wrong?

Atlas: Report a problem or suggest something from the command palette, or the speech-bubble icon in the Atlas sidebar. It opens a prefilled issue with your Atlas and editor versions filled in.
