Documentation Query - Handling Multiple Media Types in Swagger/OpenAPI
Hello Team, I hope this message finds you well. I'm currently working on documenting an API endpoint that can consume both `multipart/form-data` and `application/json` media types in a single request. I've been using Swagger/OpenAPI for documentation, and I've encountered some challenges in accurately representing this scenario. To provide some context, here's the situation: - I have an endpoint that allows clients to either send JSON data or upload a file using `multipart/form-data`. - I'd like to document this endpoint effectively in Swagger, providing clear instructions on how to structure requests with either media type. Here are my specific questions: 1. How can I properly represent an API endpoint that consumes both `multipart/form-data` and `application/json` media types using the Swagger/OpenAPI specification? 2. Are there specific annotations or practices I should follow to accurately document such a scenario in my API documentation? 3. Can you provide any examples or guidance on how to structure the Swagger annotations for an endpoint that handles both media types? I greatly appreciate any assistance you can provide. Clear and accurate documentation is crucial for our API users, and I want to make sure we're representing this scenario correctly. Thank you in advance for your help and guidance. Best regards, Vinoth S
