The transformative power of OAS-native Tyk

The true strength of OAS-native Tyk is its ability to simplify API management. Whether you’re tackling API design, documentation, testing, or deployment, OAS (OpenAPI Specification) streamlines the process and enhances automation. Enjoy seamless integration and a superior developer experience – no matter how complex your API landscape.

Implement faster, smarter, and more efficiently

  • Work directly with OpenAPI documents for faster design and deployment.
  • Use pre-filled templates to quickly create APIs and enforce standards.
  • Maintain the OpenAPI doc as your source of truth for reliable API deployment.
  • Benefit from advanced security features and detailed monitoring.
  • Embrace vendor agnosticism through flexible deployment options.

Seamless integration

Work natively with OAS documents for designing, developing, cataloging, and deploying APIs. Unlike other tools that transform OAS into proprietary formats, Tyk retains the original document and keeps all the Tyk-specific extensions in one place. This preserves the original’s integrity, easing integration with other tools.

Automatic configuration

Tyk automatically configures the API proxy from the definitions in the OAS document, including endpoints, authentication methods, request schema, example responses and more. All while keeping the core OAS description clean and human-readable.

Faster API creation

Tyk’s OAS support introduces API templates, allowing you to pre-fill fields in API definitions effortlessly to kickstart new APIs. This capability streamlines API creation and ensures adherence to governance standards such as authentication methods, simplifying your workflow.

“We believe it’s the perfect time to embrace OAS, driven by several key factors. Industry-wide adoption is increasing, with major companies across many sectors adopting OAS as the standard for describing and documenting APIs. This trend not only ensures interoperability but also promotes best practices in API design and implementation.”
