We would like to remove that barrier to entry for our customers by leveraging our position as an SCM provider to automatically detect and create API definitions. Java Spring Boot is one of the most popular ways to develop web APIs, especially for enterprise customers. This makes it a great first framework to perform API Discovery of. This epic captures the [minimum viable change](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/product-principles/#the-minimal-viable-change-mvc) required to make the feature available for users. ### Context See https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/epics/9253 ### Goal A tool that can be included into a pipeline via a template (similar to other security products) which, given a path to a Spring Boot Executable Jar, will produce an OpenAPI document describing the endpoints in that jar, which is saved as an artifact.
