Can you describe a method in OpenAPI?

Answer from AI

In OpenAPI, a method is described inside the paths object, where the key is the path, and inside it is the HTTP method (get, post, put, delete, etc.). Let's consider an example of a POST method for creating a user:

paths:
  /users:
    post:
      summary: Create a new user
      description: Creates a user with specified parameters
      requestBody:
        required: true
        content:
          application/json:
            schema:
              type: object
              properties:
                name:
                  type: string
                email:
                  type: string
                  format: email
              required:
                - name
                - email
      responses:
        '201':
          description: User successfully created
          content:
            application/json:
              schema:
                $ref: '#/components/schemas/User'
        '400':
          description: Invalid request

This describes a POST method at the path /users, which accepts a JSON with name and email, and returns 201 upon successful creation with a user object.
