OpenAPI Generator

Kiota is a client, plugin, and manifest generator for HTTP REST APIs described by OpenAPI. Available as a command-line tool and a Visual Studio Code (VS Code) extension, Kiota enables developers to search for API descriptions, filter and select specific endpoints, and generate models and a chained method API surface in various programming languages. This approach eliminates the need to depend on different API clients for each API and allows for precise generation of the required API surface area. Additionally, Kiota facilitates participation in the Microsoft Copilot ecosystem by enabling the generation of API plugins. The VS Code extension enhances the Kiota experience with a rich user interface, supporting features such as searching for API descriptions, filtering endpoints, and generating API clients. Users can select desired endpoints and generate clients, plugins, or other outputs, with completion notifications and easy access to generated outputs within the workspace.
