How to connect Swagger MCP with Python

Generate and save a new API or a new version of an existing API based on a prompt using SmartBear AI. This tool automatically applies organization governance and standardization rules during API generation. The specType parameter determines the format of the generated definition. Use: 'openapi20' for OpenAPI 2.0, 'openapi30x' for OpenAPI 3.0.x, 'openapi31x' for OpenAPI 3.1.x, 'asyncapi2xx' for AsyncAPI 2.x, 'asyncapi30x' for AsyncAPI 3.0.x. Use this tool when creating APIs that comply with governance policies or when generating APIs from natural language descriptions. Use this tool when users ask to create, generate, or design APIs with governance or standardization requirements. Fails with a conflict error if the API version already exists. Returns API details and SwaggerHub URL. **Toolset:** Registry API **Parameters:** - owner (string) *required*: API owner (organization or user, case-sensitive) - apiName (string) *required*: API name - prompt (string) *required*: The prompt describing the desired API functionality (e.g., 'Create a RESTful API for managing a pet store with endpoints for pets, orders, and inventory') - specType (enum): Specification type for the generated API definition. Use: 'openapi20' for OpenAPI 2.0, 'openapi30x' for OpenAPI 3.0.x (default), 'openapi31x' for OpenAPI 3.1.x, 'asyncapi2xx' for AsyncAPI 2.x, 'asyncapi30x' for AsyncAPI 3.0.x (default: "openapi30x")

(default: "markdown") - source (enum): Where the document content is managed. 'internal': editable in both the portal UI and via API. 'external': editable via API only, not in the portal UI. Constraint: 'html' content type only supports 'external' source. (default: "internal") - order (number): Order position of the documentation page within its parent section or item (default: 0) - parentId (string): Parent table of contents item ID - null for top-level pages, or ID of parent item for nested structure

Create a new API or update an existing API in SwaggerHub Registry for Swagger Studio. The API specification type (OpenAPI, AsyncAPI) is automatically detected from the definition content. APIs are always created with fixed values: version 1.0.0, private visibility, and automock disabled (these values cannot be changed). Returns HTTP 201 for creation, HTTP 200 for update. Response includes 'operation' field indicating whether it was a 'create' or 'update' operation along with API details and SwaggerHub URL. **Toolset:** Registry API **Parameters:** - owner (string) *required*: Organization name (owner of the API) - apiName (string) *required*: API name - definition (string) *required*: API definition content (OpenAPI/AsyncAPI specification in JSON or YAML format). Format is automatically detected. On create, fixed values are used: version 1.0.0, private visibility, automock disabled, and no project assignment. On update, the API's existing visibility is preserved.

Apply targeted search/replace edits to a YAML API definition in SwaggerHub Registry. Only OpenAPI and AsyncAPI definitions are supported. Each edit's 'oldString' must be copied exactly from swagger_get_api_definition with format:'text' and without 'resolved' or 'flatten' — those options transform the definition, so edits based on them will not match the stored source. JSON definitions are not supported. Nothing is saved unless every edit applies — failed edits are returned with 'no_match' or 'ambiguous' status. When 'newVersion' is given the patched definition is saved as a new private version; patching in place keeps the visibility of the existing version. Use this tool to fix specific issues in an existing API without regenerating the whole definition. **Toolset:** Registry API **Parameters:** - owner (string) *required*: API owner (organization or user, case-sensitive) - apiName (string) *required*: API name (case-sensitive) - version (string) *required*: Version of the definition to patch (base version, e.g. '1.0.0') - newVersion (string): Version to save the patched definition as (e.g. '1.0.1'). Must not already exist and is always created as private. Omit to overwrite the base version, which keeps its current visibility. The definition's info.version is updated automatically — do not add an edit for it. - edits (array) *required*: Search/replace edits applied sequentially to the YAML definition. Nothing is saved unless every edit applies (atomic).

Publish a product's content to make it live or as preview. This endpoint publishes the current content of a product, making it visible to portal visitors. Use preview mode to test before going live. Optionally provide `tableOfContentsId` to get a page-specific URL. Returns publication status, a live or preview URL (null if URL building fails), product and portal metadata, and an optional `warning` when metadata/URL building failed — a warning does NOT mean the publish failed. **Toolset:** Products **Parameters:** - productId (string) *required*: Product UUID or identifier in the format 'portal-subdomain:product-slug' - unique identifier for the product - tableOfContentsId (string): Optional table of contents UUID, or identifier in the format 'portal-subdomain:product-slug:section-slug:table-of-contents-slug'. When provided, publishPortalProduct uses it to resolve the published URL path for the returned preview/live link. - preview (boolean): Whether to publish as preview (true) or live (false). Preview allows testing before going live. Defaults to false (live publication) (default: false)
