We’re excited to announce the Conversational API Assistant as a plugin for Visual Studio Code— now available as a tech preview! The API Assistant will be a force multiplier for API teams, helping them improve API-related productivity throughout the entire lifecycle. With this plugin, developers can:
•Discover existing APIs to control API sprawl and duplication
•Create REST OAI specification (Create) based on natural language input
•Auto generates the backend implementation code (in Python)
•Test APIs for functional testing
The Conversational API Assistant revolutionizes this process by enabling developers to create and deploy APIs faster and more efficiently. Whether you’re an experienced API developer or just starting, this plugin provides a guided, intuitive experience .
This plugin works within your preferred development environment reducing development complexity, boosting productivity, and focusing on delivering high-quality APIs.
Discover APIs: Reuse APIs to manage API sprawl and maximize development efficiency
Effortless API Specification Creation: Use natural language conversational prompts to generate API specifications
Backend Code Development: Build backend code aligned with your API specs, allowing you to implement backend logic directly in VS Code.
No API Connect upgrade or installation required. Users will get access to the API Connect SaaS stack.
