In daily software development, do you often encounter situations where you receive an offline API documentation or need to debug an online third-party API? Typically, we have to copy and paste the API URLs, request parameters, and so on into debugging tools one by one, a process that is both time-consuming and tedious.

To address this issue, EchoAPI has designed the "AI Parsing Import" feature, which utilizes artificial intelligence technology to automatically parse various formats of API documentation and quickly import them into EchoAPI.

Advantages of AI parsing Import

Using AI parsing for imports offers several significant benefits:

• Increased Efficiency: Quickly parses complex API documentation, reducing manual entry time.
• Accuracy: AI parsing can extract key information from the document content, minimizing errors caused by manual copying.
• Multi-Format Support: Supports various input formats (such as text, request code, cURL), flexibly adapting to different developer needs.
• Convenience: Whether you are a beginner or an experienced developer, you can easily get started and quickly import API requests.
• Accelerated Development: Rapidly testing different APIs can speed up the development and debugging process, enhancing overall work efficiency.

2. Import Methods

Importing using AI parsing is straightforward, In addition to traditional cURL import methods, we can also import requests through plain text, request code (such as GO, .Net, Java, etc.), and other formats.as follows:

• Automatic Text Recognition/Import: Copy text content from the API documentation page (the more information provided, the more accurate the parsing), paste it into the input box, select “Auto” or “Text” mode, and click to import.
• Request Code Import: Directly copy the request code from the page and paste it into the input box to complete the import.
• cURL Import: API requests can also be imported using cURL commands.

Note: When obtaining API documentation, copying detailed text content from the page will improve the accuracy of the parsing.

Best Practices

To make the most of the AI parsing import feature, consider the following:

• Provide Detailed Information: When importing text, try to provide as much detail as possible to improve parsing accuracy.
• Regularly Update Documentation: Keep API documentation up to date to ensure AI can accurately parse the latest request formats.
• Experiment with Different Formats: If the import results are not satisfactory, try different import formats, such as “Text” or “Request Code,” to find the most suitable method.
• Validate Parsing Results: Even with AI parsing, it’s essential to verify the imported results to ensure they meet expectations.

With the AI parsing import feature, we can quickly parse API documentation, extracting as much complete information as possible and avoiding the risks of manual errors, making the development process smarter and more efficient.
