  • 1.  Changes between releases

    Posted Jun 02, 2020 11:11
    Hi all,

    Pretty basic question, apologies if this had already been asked.
    How can I find the changes for a specific api between releases. For example, between the latest version and N-1.

    Thank you
    Gil

    Hi Gil
    It's a very good question, no need to apologize.
    I personally think that we (the Open API team) still have work to do here, we should (for example) consider having a release notes section in the user guide (what we used to call the spec), and ensure that we maintain it from version to version.

    In the absence of ​such, you could do a semantic compare between the swagger files from the different versions (a text compare would not be enough since things might have been moved around) - I don't know if such tools exist, but try this: https://swagger.io/blog/api-development/using-swagger-to-detect-breaking-api-changes/

    Hope it helps
