Search Exchange for API Specs
– Access to all available versions
Probably worth deprecating old versions

Using Maven Versions and Site plugin you can
get a fuller report covering all dependencies in
your POM file.

How do you apply it to existing projects
– In the src/main/resources
• Delete contents of api folder
• Delete the api.exchange.modules folder
– Add the API as a dependency from Exchange
– Re-scaffold if needed

OAS First Class Citizen

OAS now has same capabilities as RAML
– Create in design center with type assist
– Scaffold API’s from an OAS spec
– YAML and JSON formats both supported
– Doesn’t support v3 currently
– Couldn’t get scaffolding from design centre
to work – only as a Exchange dependency

12. Thank You
and any questions?
