Apidog's November Feature Updates: API Test Case Generation by AI, JSON Body Auto-Completion...

Hello Apidog Users,

November at Apidog brings powerful enhancements to make your API development workflow smarter and more collaborative — powerful AI-assisted test case generation, smoother debugging, expanded OpenAPI/Swagger compatibility, and better teamwork across environments and variables. Below is everything new in Apidog this month👇

⭐ New Updates

🤖 Smarter API Test Cases Generation by AI: AI-powered testing just got a major upgrade! When generating endpoint test cases with AI, you can now:

Preview a list of test cases with descriptions before generating full details, giving you control over what gets created.

Generate additional test cases based on your existing ones for comprehensive coverage.

Simultaneously generate assertions, custom scripts, and other pre/post processors alongside test cases for complete test scenarios.

🌐 Status Code Ranges Support: API design now supports status code ranges as defined in OpenAPI/Swagger specs, including 2XX, 4XX, 5XX, and default. Design more flexible and standards-compliant APIs with ease.

🎯 Intelligent JSON Body Auto-Completion: Speed up your debugging workflow! When the request body schema is defined in your API specification, Apidog now provides smart auto-completion for JSON body input during endpoint debugging. Less typing, fewer errors, higher efficiency.

🔐 OAuth 2.0 Tokens Saved Locally: After obtaining an OAuth 2.0 token, you can now store it as a current value of the variable. This keeps your token private and ensures it won’t be shared with other team members. You can also manage separate OAuth 2.0 tokens for different environments, making it easy to use the right token in each context.

🔧 Enhanced gRPC Error Handling: When a gRPC endpoint returns an error, Metadata and Trailer information will still be displayed normally.

📦 Response Components Compatible with OpenAPI Specifications: You can now add both descriptions and headers to response components.

🤝 Real-Time Global Variables Collaboration: Global variables now support multi-user online collaboration with real-time automatic updates. Work seamlessly with your team without worrying about variable conflicts or outdated values.

🔔 Environment Names in Webhook Notifications: When running test scenarios with Apidog CLI specifying a run environment, Webhook notifications now include the environment name for better context and traceability.

⚡️ Organization-Wide AI Access: Once an organization enables the AI feature, all teams within the organization can use it directly—no additional configuration needed.

🛡️ Improved Private Environment Handling: When a test scenario is run with a private environment selected, other team members will now see a helpful "Select an environment" reminder instead of the confusing "Environment has been deleted" message.

🌿Enhancements for OpenAPI/Swagger Imports & Exports:

Added full support for importing and exporting response components in OpenAPI/Swagger specs.
Fixed an issue where, during OpenAPI/Swagger specs import, the option Keep the existing endpoint folder unchanged for When the same endpoint is in different folders did not work.
Fixed an issue where, when importing OpenAPI/Swagger specs, the security requirements of the root were not imported correctly and were mistakenly configured as No Auth.
Resolved a problem where, when exporting OpenAPI/Swagger specs, if multiple form-data parameters are all configured with a content-type, only the last one's content-type was exported correctly.

🐞 Bug Fixes & Improvements:

Corrected the Import "e.g." in Postman as endpoint debug cases option that wasn't functioning during Postman Collections import.
Expanded Git branch display limit—no more seeing only 30 branches when configuring Git repository connections.
Fixed error message display issues when fetching secrets from third-party vault providers failed.
