API Documentation

• The cool thing about FastAPI is that it's self documenting

• Meaning that you don't have to create any sort of API documentation

• This is done by using Swagger UI

• And is accessed by using the base ROOT URL with /docs

Example:

http://127.0.0.1:8000/docs

• It redirects you to a page with all the documentation

• Additionally this also allows you to see what is required to run the query successfully and try it out from the documentation itself

• There is an alternative documentation tool as well called Redoc

• This can be accessed by using the base URL + /redoc

http://127.0.0.1:8000/redoc
