# ๐ Understanding APX Results
## What You'll See in the Output
When APX runs, it generates multiple types of outputs. Here's what each one means:
## 1. ๐ก Discovered APIs
**What it is:** List of all API endpoints found
**Example:**
```json
{
"_type": "api_summary",
"apis": [
{
"url": "https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts",
"method": "GET",
"hasPagination": true,
"dataPath": "data"
}
]
}
```
**Value:** You now know all available endpoints without reading docs!
## 2. ๐ป Code Snippets
**What it is:** Ready-to-use code in 12 languages
**Example (TypeScript):**
```typescript
const response = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts', {
method: 'GET',
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'application/json'
}
});
const posts = await response.json();
```
**Value:** Copy-paste ready code - no manual writing needed!
## 3. ๐ TypeScript Types
**What it is:** Type definitions for all data structures
**Example:**
```typescript
interface Post {
id: number;
title: string;
body: string;
userId: number;
}
interface PostsResponse {
data: Post[];
total: number;
}
```
**Value:** Type safety and autocomplete in your IDE!
## 4. ๐ API Documentation
**What it is:** Complete API docs in multiple formats
**Formats:**
- **OpenAPI/Swagger** - Standard API documentation
- **Postman Collection** - Import into Postman
- **cURL Commands** - Ready to test in terminal
- **Insomnia Collection** - Import into Insomnia
**Value:** Shareable, professional API documentation!
## 5. ๐งช Test Suites
**What it is:** Ready-to-run tests
**Example (Jest):**
```javascript
describe('Posts API', () => {
test('should fetch posts', async () => {
const response = await fetch('https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts');
expect(response.status).toBe(200);
const data = await response.json();
expect(Array.isArray(data)).toBe(true);
});
});
```
**Value:** Tests included - better code quality!
## 6. ๐ฆ SDK Packages
**What it is:** Complete SDK packages
**Includes:**
- Package.json/requirements.txt
- Main SDK file
- Type definitions
- README
- Examples
**Value:** Publish-ready SDK packages!
## 7. ๐ Security Report
**What it is:** Security analysis of discovered APIs
**Checks:**
- HTTPS usage
- Exposed API keys
- Authentication requirements
- Rate limiting info
- Sensitive data exposure
**Value:** Security best practices identified!
## 8. ๐ Execution Summary
**What it is:** Statistics about the run
**Includes:**
- APIs discovered
- Requests processed
- Items extracted
- Duration
- Success rate
**Value:** Understand what was processed!
## How to Use the Results
### Step 1: Check Discovered APIs
Look for `_type: "api_summary"` items to see what was found.
### Step 2: Get Code Snippets
Look for `_type: "code_snippets"` items - copy the code you need.
### Step 3: Use Type Definitions
Look for `_type: "typescript_types"` - add to your project.
### Step 4: Import Documentation
Download OpenAPI/Postman files and import into your tools.
### Step 5: Run Tests
Copy test suites and run them in your project.
### Step 6: Review Security
Check the security report for any issues.
## Real Example
**Input:** `https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts`
**Output:**
- โ
1 API discovered
- โ
Code in 12 languages
- โ
TypeScript types
- โ
Test suites (5 frameworks)
- โ
SDK packages (3 languages)
- โ
Documentation (4 formats)
- โ
Security report
**Time:** 1-2 minutes
**Manual Work:** Would take 2-3 weeks
**That's the value of APX!** ๐
