Discord OpenAPI Specification

This repository contains the public preview of the OpenAPI 3.1 specification for Discord's API. Currently, the spec is only available for the most recent Discord API version (v10).

⚠️ The public preview of the OpenAPI spec is subject to breaking changes without advance notice, and should not be used within production environments.

Usage

Spec Files

Two versions of the spec are included—the standard spec and the preview spec:

• openapi.json is the standard spec that contains the stable, public API.
• openapi_preview.json is the preview spec which contains unstable and/or experimental API features. This should not be considered stable or used in production environments.

Integrating with Postman

To use the spec with Postman, you can view the public collection.

Spec conventions

• This is a preview and it may be not correct. If you find discrepancies between the spec and our docs, other than the ones mentioned below, let us know, and follow the docs, not the spec.
• Even though we define anyOf and oneOf unions, they all mean that only one type from the list can be used as a data format. E.g. anyOf: {'Cat', 'Dog'}, still means that you can either pass Cat or Dog, not Cat+Dog. This is signified by the custom extension x-discord-union: oneOf. We use anyOf when we technically can’t use oneOf. One of the reasons to do that is e.g. when all the fields are optional and the passed in data could be validated with more than one format.
• We avoid over-specifying response fields and merely define field types, like int32, and we avoid defining specific minimums, maximums, etc.
• Some fields typed as strings in our docs may be typed as ints in the spec. Our API accepts strings for int fields if they are parseable as ints. We think it’ll be more precise to spec these int-parseable strings as ints.

Known issues

• (almost) All nullable fields are additionally marked as optional and all optional fields are additionally marked as nullable.
• Operations and fields don’t have descriptions.
• Operations don’t have tags.
• Flag fields don’t detail specific flag values and their meaning.
• Optional query args are typed as nullable, even though it doesn’t make much sense.
