Headline features
  • Multipurpose tags, with nesting

    • summary field to allow short descriptions, used when displaying lists of tags.
    • parent field to point to the tag that this tag is nested under.
    • kind field to allow a tag to be classified into a category such as navigation, or audience.
      The kind field is free-form text, however there are some expected/conventional values such as nav (in line with the most common current usage as grouping for documentation output).
    • A registry to establish conventions for values used in kind.
  • Support for additional HTTP methods

    • Support the new query method alongside the existing get/post/put/delete/options/head/patch/trace.
    • Under an additionalOperations entry in a Path, use any other methods not listed as keys using the correct capitalization, e.g. LINK. Do NOT add HEAD under this, use the existing sibling head.
  • Document identity and URL resolution

    • Additional top-level field $self is added to allow users to define the base URI of the document, used to resolve relative references.
    • More explanation and examples regarding URL resolution.
Data modeling and representation
  • Streaming support: sequential media types including SSE

    • Support for sequential media types such as text/event-stream for server-sent events (SSE) and multipart/mixed, application/jsonl, application/json-seq and others for sequential data.
    • Responses can be a repeating data structure, and are treated as if they are an array of Schema Objects.
    • Use itemSchema in a mediatype entry to describe each item.
    • A media types registry is published to give more context for each of the media types.
  • Parameter and header changes

    • Additional parameter location querystring, to allow parsing the entire query string as a single field similar to the way a request body is handled, using the content field.
    • Parameters can therefore be in the querystring as an alternative to the existing header, cookie, query and path values.
    • allowReserved field is now permitted on headers and on parameters with any value of in, and applies where the combination of in and style automatically percent-encode the value.
  • New style option for cookies

    • Additional style option cookie for content in a cookie, which uses semicolon as a separator and does not encode data values.
  • Additions to support multipart media types

    • New itemSchema field, for the schema that describes each of the items in a sequential media type.
    • New fields prefixEncoding and itemEncoding can be used instead of encoding for multipart media types.
    • The specification also contains examples of sequential JSON and Server-Sent events that show these fields in use.
  • Improvements for APIs using XML as a content format

    • New nodeType field allows mapping schemas to common XML node types: element, attribute, text, cdata, or none.
    • attribute: true is now deprecated in favor of nodeType: attribute.
    • wrapped: true is now deprecated in favor of nodeType: element (as nodeType defaults to none for arrays to preserve compatibility).
    • The xml keyword can be used in any Schema Object.
    • XML namespaces can be IRIs (rather than URIs).
    • Explanation and examples for many use cases including handling null, handling arrays, replacing the name, and handling ordered elements.
    • Clarify that the root schema of an XML Object should use the component name.
  • Examples as either structured or serialized values

    • The Example Object (used in examples fields) gets two new fields: dataValue and serializedValue.
    • dataValue describes the example in structured format.
    • serializedValue shows how the example will be formatted when it is sent/received by the API.
    • The existing externalValue field can still be used to give a reference to an example, but this is now clearly documented as being a serialized value.
Additional features
  • Updated security schemes

    • Support for OAuth2 Device Authorization flow with additional deviceAuthorization field in the flows object and for the individual flow, a new field deviceAuthorizationUrl alongside tokenUrl.
    • Additional security scheme field: oauth2MetadataUrl URL for auth server metadata, as described by the OAuth2 Server Metadata Standard.
    • Additional deprecated field for security schemes (indicating that the scheme may still be supported, but that it should not be used).
    • Ability to reference a security scheme by URI rather than declaring it in components.
  • Improvements to the Server Object

    • Clarify that server URLs should not include fragment or query.
    • Support new name field alongside description, url and variables.
    • Formal ABNF syntax for the allowed variable substitution in server urls, alongside guidance that each variable can only be used once in a URL.
  • Better polymorphic support

    • The discriminator propertyName can now be an optional field.
    • New field defaultMapping to indicate which schema to use if the propertyName is not set, or if the value is unrecognized.
  • Templates with formal syntax

    • The specification now includes ABNF (Augmented Backus–Naur Form) for path templating, server variables, and runtime expressions in the Link Object.
  • Flexible metadata fields in the Response Object

    • description field for responses is now optional.
    • Additional summary field for responses.
  • Additional updates

    • A new key mediaTypes is supported under components to support re-use of Media Type Objects.
  • Updates to referenced standards

  • Editorial changes

    • Extensive additions around media types, encoding, sequential media types, SSE examples, working with binary data.
    • Streamlined to YAML examples (unless something specific to another format) to try to make it easier to follow.
    • Better explanation and examples for using Encoding and Serialization, and a note not to apply percent-encoding to headers.
    • Clarify that Request Body Objects need to specify at least one media type to be meaningful.
    • How to more clearly indicate that responses will not have a body.
    • Explanation and examples of headers including Link and Set-Cookie.
    • Detailed explanation of percent-encoding and -decoding, updated examples and references to match, including the Style Examples table.
    • Extensive additional notes on parsing and serializing JSON and non-JSON data formats.

v3.1.2: OAS 3.1.2 Released!

Compare Source

Version 3.1.2 has no material changes but does contain editorial fixes, additional examples, and clarifications.

  • Clarify that $ref in a Schema Object is a JSON Schema $ref keyword.
  • Detailed explanation of percent-encoding and -decoding, updated examples and references to match, including the Style Examples table.
  • Better explanation and examples for using Encoding and Serialization, and a note not to apply percent-encoding to headers.
  • Clarify that Request Body Objects need to specify at least one media type to be meaningful.
  • How to more clearly indicate that no response will have a body.
  • How to handle null in XML as an advisory note; since the functionality cannot be changed it is implementation-defined for 3.1 tooling.
  • Clarify that the root schema of an XML object should use the component name.
