If you have worked on a Spring-based REST application, then you will probably be aware of API documentation with Swagger-UI using the SpringFox library. This library integrates seamlessly with Spring-based applications and provides an elegant Swagger user interface for documentation as well as testing your endpoints. The Problem As we already know, it is very easy to document REST applications using the SpringFox Swagger-UI library, but a problem arises when we are working in an environment where we have multiple REST-based applications. Typically, we face this issue in a microservices environment. Most of us end up managing a separate Swagger-UI for each application, which means that each service will have its own endpoint and to access the Swagger-UI and we have to use a different URL for different applications.
