Hi Alex,

If you're working with Kestrel you can modify the launchSettings.json file and in the applicationUrl add another URL for the secure connection. For example, I changed it from

{
  "profiles": {
    "ServerAPIs": {
      "launchBrowser": true,
      "applicationUrl": "http://0.0.0.0:5000",
      "commandName": "Project",
      "environmentVariables": {
        "ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
      },
      "launchUrl": "swagger",
      "ischecked": "true"
    }
  }
}

to

{
  "profiles": {
    "ServerAPIs": {
      "launchBrowser": true,
      "applicationUrl": "http://0.0.0.0:5000/;https://0.0.0.0:5001",
      "commandName": "Project",
      "environmentVariables": {
        "ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
      },
      "launchUrl": "swagger",
      "ischecked": "true"
    }
  }
}

and that serves the Swagger application on HTTPS on port 5001

If you're using SnapDevelop you can open the ServerAPIs project's properties to change this setting:

If you're using something other than Kestrel, you have to check the respective documentation for the Web Server you're using to serve the WebAPIs

Hi Alex,

Swagger, by default, is only enabled on the Development build profile for the Web APIs. You can change this behavior by modifying the Server APIs' Startup.cs as follows:

Move the app.UsePowerServerOpenAPI(); file to after the closing curly bracket:

After this is done, you will need to redeploy the application and restart IIS.

With this you will have exposed Swagger on production.

Hope this helps.

When I run my project in development, Swagger is deployed locally at: https://localhost:5001/swagger/index.html

How can I publish my Swagger project on the application server so that my clients can access it and view my API documentation? Currently, I take the generated JSON file, export it to Swagger, and publish the service, but I lose many of the properties that I have configured during development. I would like to know if after running in the development environment (Swagger), I can create an identical service in production.

Thanks.
