Hello developers, welcome to my new article. In today’s article I am going to share how you can logically group your APIs in Swagger UI to make it easy for everybody to understand.

😕 Problem: How to Make Swagger Dashboard More Readable?

Imagine we have a complex monolith application that contains tens or hundreds of REST APIs. This makes everything is a little bit harder to find what you are looking for.

However, when you observe the project, you realized your monolith application has multiple third party integrations or APIs that are logically related and they requires at least 3 of your REST API methods to work.

👉 How to Separate REST API methods in Swagger UI? 👈

Create multiple pages for logically related methods instead of creating one huge list of REST API methods in Swagger UI. One notable advantage of this solution is that it is easy to share the specific schema of the project with your clients (your or other organizations’ developers).
