"Best Platform to Visualize API"
4/5
What do you like best about Swagger UI?

With Swagger UI developers get a look and feel of real APIs/ endpoints for an application.

This tool allows its users/consumers/developers to run and hit the endpoints on UI itself so for them, it looks like they are testing a real-world application. This is really helpful for demoing the APIs' request- response to the end customers.

Also, it nicely explains endpoints. For example, what are query parameters, what is required in payload what is optional, etc? So ultimately it makes sense for the readers.

Also, it provides an authentication feature while testing API to get the feel of security like in a real application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Swagger UI?

Almost good and literally helpful for the clients/customers to check the endpoints but it could have the feature of environment setup where we can set up different env like QA, and production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"UI based tool to test and verify the API's and alternative to other API tools"
5/5
What do you like best about Swagger UI?

Built with an excellent user-friendly user interface and fulfills the jobs of the API testing, an alternative to the other tools like postman and soap-UI, which are a bit tricky to handle and need some technical background. It has pre-defined user-friendly attributes displayed on the UI for the users to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Swagger UI?

The feature I dislike the most is the logging off or disconnection from the swagger tool every 5 mins due to the authentication of the tool. Need to authenticate the device for every idle time of not more than 5 mins. Unnecessary attributes are displayed on the screen, which makes the UI bit clumsy to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good tool for your API purpose"
4/5
What do you like best about Swagger UI?

Swagger UI is a good tool to document all your APIs. And it also helps in sharing the APIs with other developers across the organization. It has a few good features like sharing the link which has all the APIs and you can also run the API in the link itself and check the response. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Swagger UI?

Unlike its competitors, it doesn't have an environment set up to declare variables. And also if we compare the UI with its competitors,UI could have been much better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"All time best project integrated tool to test APIs"
5/5
What do you like best about Swagger UI?

On a simple note this tool got all the necessary services to be provided to test the self developed APIs and I particularly test REST APIs which is developed using Java. Its unique feature which can be integrated directly with the project service to test the developed APIs on the go and it's well organised structure where we can differentiate based on the various controllers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Swagger UI?

Apart from its advantages it has got lot of limitations. Like other api testing tools which provides features like bulk upload testing, parallel execution and editing the headers on the go. These features are lack in this swagger Ui. It is very poor with its documentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
