Optic availability

[Jeff Madison]

The announcement about Optic is fantastic news. It states "Optic will be integrated into Compass". When will we know when that will happen? Can't wait!

Hey @Jeff Madison

I hope you are great. This is Kelvin from the Compass Support Team. Thank you for your question!

I'm happy to inform you that Optic has already been integrated into Compass. If you open a component page in Compass, you will see the "API specification" section in the side menu.

This feature scans connected repositories for OpenAPI YAML files and displays them in the Compass component's API spec viewer (API Tab).

To ensure the API can discover spec files, below are the requirements:

• Component Type: Service, Application, Other

• Bitbucket / Github Forge App is connected with Compass

• The repository with the spec file is connected to the repository

  • Spec file supported extension: .yml .yaml and .json

  • OpenAPI Specfile Version: Swagger spec v2 and OpenAPI 3 / 3.1.

Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions. I'm here to help!

Thanks, Kelvin. That original announcement also mentioned that adding Optic to Compass "will help teams adopt common sets of standards for design, security, and stability. Their API quality and stability with be tracked alongside your other scorecards." How will that be surfaced in Compass?
