Give usedocs the URL of your OpenAPI file, or paste it, and usedocs creates a page for each operation, grouped by tag or in one API reference collection. Review, publish, and the assistant can answer from them with a source link. Guides that explain authentication, pagination, webhooks, and errors live next to the reference; connect GitHub so merged pull requests propose edits to those guides when the code changes. Every page also has a Markdown copy and appears in llms.txt, and developers can install your docs in Cursor.
Set it up
- Open Import. In Help center, open Import and choose OpenAPI.
- Paste or upload the file. JSON from a URL or pasted (convert YAML to JSON first); usedocs creates a page per endpoint.
- Review and publish. Check the drafts and publish the reference collection.
- Re-import on changes. Import again when the spec changes.
What it does
- Reference articles. Draft articles per operation, grouped in an API reference collection.
- Cited API answers. The assistant links the reference article behind each answer.
- Next to your guides. Reference and guides in one help center with one search.
- AI tool access. Markdown copies, llms.txt, and an MCP install for Cursor.
Good to know
- Very large specs import more slowly.
- Examples are only as good as those in the file.
- Keep private or beta endpoints out of a public help center, or put them in a private collection.
- Re-import is manual.
