**Total: 131 endpoint documentation files organized in 18 groups**
✅ **100% API Coverage** - All 123 operation IDs documented
## How It Works
The API documentation uses Mintlify's native OpenAPI support to automatically generate interactive API documentation from the OpenAPI specification file.
### Components
1. **openapi.yaml**: The source of truth for API endpoints, copied from `api/src/backend/api/specs/v1.yaml`
2. **MDX files**: Enhanced documentation for each endpoint with examples, tips, and additional context
3. **docs.json**: Mintlify configuration that references the OpenAPI spec
## Updating the Documentation
### When the API Spec Changes
When you update the OpenAPI specification in `api/src/backend/api/specs/v1.yaml`, you need to sync it to the docs:
```bash
# From the root of the repository
cp api/src/backend/api/specs/v1.yaml docs/api-reference/openapi.yaml
```
Consider automating this with a pre-commit hook or CI/CD pipeline.
### Adding New Endpoints
To document a new API endpoint:
1. **Update the OpenAPI spec** in `api/src/backend/api/specs/v1.yaml`
2. **Sync to docs**: Copy the spec to `docs/api-reference/openapi.yaml`
3. **Create MDX file**: Create a new `.mdx` file in the appropriate directory
4. **Update navigation**: Add the new page to `docs/docs.json` in the API Reference tab
#### MDX File Template
```mdx
---
title: "Endpoint Title"
api: "METHOD /api/v1/endpoint"
description: "Brief description of what this endpoint does."
---
Detailed description of the endpoint.
## Path Parameters
- `param` (required/optional) - Description
## Query Parameters
- `param` (required/optional) - Description
## Request Body
```json
{
"example": "request"
}
```
## Example Request
```bash
curl -X METHOD "https://api.prowler.com/api/v1/endpoint" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/vnd.api+json"
```
## Response
Description of the response.
```
### Testing Changes Locally
To preview documentation changes locally:
```bash
cd docs
mintlify dev
```
Then open http://localhost:3000 in your browser.
## Mintlify Configuration
The API documentation is configured in `docs/docs.json`:
- **openapi**: Points to the OpenAPI spec file
- **api.baseUrl**: The base URL for the API
- **api.auth.method**: Authentication method (bearer token)
- **api.playground.mode**: Interactive API playground mode
## API Endpoint Groups
### Core Endpoints
- **Authentication (3)**: JWT token management and tenant switching
- **API Keys (5)**: Programmatic API access management
- **Users (1)**: User profile and information
- **Tenants (3)**: Organization and invitation management
### Cloud Infrastructure
- **Providers (6)**: Cloud provider (AWS, Azure, GCP, etc.) configuration
- **Scans (5)**: Security scan execution and results
- **Findings (6)**: Security findings and vulnerabilities
- **Resources (5)**: Cloud resource inventory and metadata
### Compliance & Reporting
- **Compliance (4)**: Compliance framework assessments (CIS, PCI-DSS, etc.)
- **Overviews (5)**: Dashboard aggregated statistics
### Integrations & Automation
- **Integrations (7)**: External service integrations (S3, Security Hub, JIRA, Slack)
- **Lighthouse AI (5)**: AI-powered security insights configuration
- **Processors (2)**: Finding processors and mutelists
- **Schedules (1)**: Automated scan scheduling
### System
- **Tasks (2)**: Asynchronous task monitoring
## Best Practices
1. **Keep OpenAPI spec up to date**: Always update the source spec first, then sync to docs
2. **Add examples**: Include real-world examples in MDX files
3. **Use callouts**: Leverage Mintlify components like `<Note>`, `<Tip>`, `<Warning>` for important information
4. **Test playground**: Verify that the interactive API playground works for each endpoint
5. **Document filters**: For list endpoints, clearly document all available filters
6. **Include rate limits**: Document any rate limiting or pagination requirements
7. **Group related endpoints**: Keep related endpoints in the same directory
8. **Use consistent naming**: Follow the pattern `action.mdx` (e.g., `list.mdx`, `create.mdx`, `retrieve.mdx`)
## Resources
- [Mintlify OpenAPI Guide](https://mintlify.com/docs/api-playground/openapi-support)
- [Mintlify Components](https://mintlify.com/docs/content/components)
- [JSON:API Specification](https://jsonapi.org/)
- [Prowler Cloud API](https://api.prowler.com/api/v1/docs)
## Syncing OpenAPI Spec
The OpenAPI specification is maintained in the API repository and should be synced regularly:
```bash
# Using the provided sync script
cd docs
./sync-api-spec.sh
# Or manually
cp ../api/src/backend/api/specs/v1.yaml ./api-reference/openapi.yaml
```
The `sync-api-spec.sh` script automates this process and can be integrated into your CI/CD pipeline.
## Automation 🤖
**NEW**: Documentation can now be auto-generated from the OpenAPI specification!
### Quick Start with Automation
```bash
cd docs
# 1. Sync latest OpenAPI spec from GitHub
./sync-api-spec.sh
# 2. Generate MDX files automatically
python3 generate-api-docs.py
# 3. Test locally
mintlify dev
```
### Available Scripts
1. **`sync-api-spec.sh`** - Downloads latest OpenAPI spec from GitHub
2. **`generate-api-docs.py`** - Generates/updates MDX files from OpenAPI spec
### Features
- ✅ Auto-generate MDX files from OpenAPI spec
- ✅ Update existing or create new endpoints
- ✅ Dry-run mode to preview changes
- ✅ Proper directory structure and naming
- ✅ Frontmatter generation (title, API path, description)
- ✅ Parameter documentation extraction
- ✅ Request/response examples
### Documentation
See **[AUTOMATION.md](./AUTOMATION.md)** for complete automation guide including:
- Detailed usage instructions
- CI/CD integration examples
- Troubleshooting
- Best practices
