OpenAPI Validator checks OpenAPI 3.0 and 3.1 specification documents for structural errors, semantic issues, and best practice violations. It validates against the JSON Schema for OpenAPI specifications, checks for undefined schema references ($ref), verifies that all paths have at least one operation, validates parameter serialization styles, and detects security scheme misconfigurations. The tool produces categorized errors (structural, semantic, best practice) with line-number references for efficient fixing.
API architects validating spec compliance, developer experience teams maintaining API portals, and backend developers generating SDKs from specifications. The tool runs entirely in your browser — your data never leaves your device.
