Ably OpenAPI documents

Important

The specs in this repository are deprecated in favor of those found in the Ably docs repository as of August 2024.

This repository contains OpenAPI Specification v3 documents for the following Ably REST APIs:

  • Platform API
  • Control API

Versions

Each OpenAPI document file name contains a version number. If a change is made that is breaking (that is, not backwards-compatible) Ably will create a new OpenAPI document. For example, Control API version one is in control-v1.yaml, but version two would be in control-v2.yaml. When you are viewing the contents of this repository locally, the latest version is displayed by default. To view older versions of the API reference, modify the files in the openapi folder to point to the version of the document that you would like to view.

Installation

The following command installs the requirements (currently, only http-server):

npm install

Viewing the API reference locally

To View the API reference locally, run:

npm start

Point your browser at http://localhost:8080. You can then select the API reference of your choice, rendered by Redoc.

Validating the OpenAPI documents with Spectral

You can validate the OpenAPI documents with Spectral.

To install Spectral:

npm install -g @stoplight/spectral

Or using Yarn:

yarn global add @stoplight/spectral

You can then validate your OpenAPI document as required. For example, on the command-line enter:

spectral lint control-v1.yaml

Spectral then lists any issues with the document.

Quickstart

You can see the quickstart guide in this repository, or refer to the main documentation.

A quick example request using Curl is shown here:

curl "https://control.ably.net/v1/accounts/<ACCOUNT_ID>/apps" \
     --header "Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>" \
     --header "Accept: application/json"
  1. Copy and paste your account ID to <ACCOUNT_ID>.
  2. Copy and paste your access token to <ACCESS_TOKEN>.

Run the Curl command in your shell. You will receive back a list of your Ably applications.
