JSON Import¶
Import endpoints from an API Dev Studio JSON export file (.json). This completes the round-trip with the JSON export feature, letting you move endpoints between projects or share them with teammates.
How to Import¶
The import follows a 4-step wizard:
Step 1: Select File¶
- Click Import in the toolbar
- Select JSON (API Dev Studio)
- Click Select JSON File or click the drop zone
- Choose a
.jsonfile exported from API Dev Studio
Step 2: Preview¶
The preview shows a table of endpoints that will be imported:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Type | Endpoint type (mock, proxy, webhook) |
| Method | HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.) |
| Path | URL path |
| Name | Endpoint name |
Overwrite existing endpoints — Check this option to replace endpoints that already exist with the same path and method. When unchecked, duplicates are skipped.
Step 3: Import¶
Click Import N Endpoints to start. A progress indicator shows while endpoints are being created.
Step 4: Results¶
The summary shows three counts:
| Count | Description |
|---|---|
| Imported | Endpoints successfully created |
| Skipped | Endpoints that already existed (when overwrite is off) |
| Errors | Endpoints that failed to import |
Lists of imported and skipped endpoint paths are shown for review.
File Format¶
The JSON export file uses the apidevstudio-endpoints format:
{
"format": "apidevstudio-endpoints",
"version": "1.0",
"exported_at": "2026-01-15T10:30:00Z",
"project_name": "My API",
"endpoints": [
{
"type": "mock",
"name": "Get Users",
"path": "/api/users",
"method": "GET",
"enabled": true,
"config": { ... },
"operation_id": null,
"folder_path": ""
}
]
}
