# OpenAPI Description

Understory uses [OpenAPI](https://www.openapis.org/) to document and describe our API.
This standardised format is machine-readable and can be used in several development workflows.

- Generate API clients in your language and framework of choice
- Mock the API with a generated server based on the spec for integration tests
- Import into an API client to test out the API, e.g. [Postman](https://learning.postman.com/docs/integrations/available-integrations/working-with-openAPI/)

You can explore the OpenAPI document in the [API Reference](/apis) page.
