How to Re-import an Updated API Spec

When the upstream API changes, pull the update into an existing server instead of rebuilding its tools from zero.

Prerequisites: an existing REST server originally created from an OpenAPI/Swagger or Postman import.

Steps

  1. Open the server and go to its API Endpoints tab.

    Open the capture server to document Re import an Updated API Spec

    Open the API Endpoints tab, which contains the interface used by this procedure

  2. Click Reimport spec.

  3. Upload the updated spec or collection file.

  4. Confirm.

    Bring the Re-import API spec panel into the screenshot viewport

Confirm it worked

Arthur reports how many tools were added and how many were updated. New operations appear as new tools; existing tools are updated in place.

Good to know

  • Tools you edited by hand aren't discarded — reimporting only adds and updates what changed in the new spec.
