Creating an OpenAPI descriptor

You can use TPF Toolkit to create OpenAPI descriptors that can be used on the z/TPF system.

About this task

The OpenAPI descriptor defines the REST services by using the OpenAPI specification. The OpenAPI descriptor on the z/TPF system must be a JSON file.

To create an OpenAPI descriptor that can be used on the z/TPF system, you can use TPF Toolkit and follow the procedure in Creating OpenAPI descriptor files. If you do not use TPF Toolkit, you can follow the OpenAPI Specification version 2.0 to create a JSON file. Note that the z/TPF system supports only a subset of the OpenAPI Specification version 2.0. For more information, see Supported OpenAPI Specification version 2.0.
