I have the same resource and the same verb (GET), but would like to get different attribute sets as a response. How do I have to use 'projections' properly to be able to enter various GETs for the same resource?
Or is 'projection' the wrong way? Or is there another better way?
Hi, great question. Take a look at this example:
https://swaggerhub.com/api/swagger-tutorials/modeling-samples/1.0.0
Which shows how you would handle different but related input/output models with Swagger.
Hi, thanks for your answer.
But I guess I formulated my question not the way I should.
What I try to get is the possibilty, to offer the API requester the chance, to choose from different sets of response attributes of the same resource.
Means, resource /user has 4 response attributes:
- name
- street
- town
- country
As a requester, I should be able to choose only name and street as a response (xs-response), or name, street, town and country (xl-response).
Is there a way to offer this possibility?
Unfortunately no, the specification for the definition does now allow you to do that. You are welcome to file enhancements against the specification here:
