VS Code Extension for API Insights

What you get with API Insights

• Get a unique API quality score across three categories and 30+ different tests directly within your coding environments
• Get a re-test notification as soon as there has been a change made to the Open API Specs
• Easily compare how your API stacks up to other APIs within your industry

How to start

Walkthrough

In the walkthrough, we will provide you sample file and guide you step by step on how to get your first report.

Select a file from the workspace.

Once you have your OpenAPI spec file in the workspace, you can select it and it will be immediately checked.

On file change, you can re-check for a new score

Extension will track file change, and we will show you a prompt to re-check your score.

Open in the browser to use the comparison feature

If you like to know how you compare to the industry, you can open the report in the browser and select industry at the bottom. Once the score is computed, it will be shown automatically.

Why use API insights

API Insights is a great free tool to keep your API in check while you are developing it or to simply check how your API compares to your competitors in the industry.

It keeps you aware of any changes you make so you never get lost even if there are distractions that might get your focus on the API Spec.

API Insights solves API governance and keeps you and your team aware of potential improvements across 3 categories:

• API Quality
• API Security
• API Performance

Other tools might give you some surface data about how you are doing, and Insights gives you the actual answer and directs you to where you can do better.
