Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

Est. annual revenue

N/A

Est. acquisition value

N/A

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    Entity groupings would be nice to have but this did the trick to be able to easily browse available resources and import into an HTTP client. Thanks!

    Works as expected for our use case and was a great way to easily establish schemas for our API customizations and extensions.

    When you try to generate types it doesn’t work. The schema it creates is invalid

    Very useful, we are using this in our docs sites, we have added some filters to correct some stuff and then just load the file vis the API url. Thanks for this!
