Overview: I find document APIM contracts incredibly important and yet it's often very poorly done. This post provide a simple YAML and JSON example that can be imported into APIM or any other gateway product for that matter.
The YAML file below can be imported into APIM and published to the developer portal. The example provides a clear example on options and how an API should be documented. Developers can see an example of the JSON to use when performing the PUT. The developers can see more information of a property, for instance a passport number would be a certain length and rather than specifying and option free text string with no description, the developer would know that the property has to come in the correct format.
