You might encounter problems when implementing an API.

Something Failed While Scaffolding an API

Anypoint Code Builder does not support scaffolding API specs that reference OAS or JSON schema fragments that you import from Exchange as project dependencies. Instead, you can scaffold a spec with such fragments by providing the fragments inline within the spec or through fragment files that you create manually within your project directory. RAML fragments from Exchange are not affected by this limitation.

If you attempt to scaffold an API that references these types of fragments, you see a message like the following:

Something failed while scaffolding API

The scaffold fails and the flows and other elements aren’t created.

If you use the iterative approach to scaffold the API (using multi-root workspaces), the implementation project folder structure is not created.

To work around this issue, before scaffolding the API:

  1. Add the fragment directly to a folder in your API spec project, such as fragments:

    Fragment folder in the Explorer view

  2. Change the path to the fragment from Exchange to the local folder, for example:

    • Reference Local OAS Fragment

    • Reference OAS Fragment on Exchange

    $ref: fragments/frag-defs.yaml#/components/examples/flightsList
    $ref: exchange_modules/e91cab06-650b-4634-9c6f-5bc4f4fc4d17/frag-defs/1.0.0/frag-defs.yaml#/components/examples/flightsList

  3. Re-scaffold the API.
