Endpoints tool window

Last modified: 07 August 2023

View | Tool Windows | Endpoints

The Endpoints tool window provides an aggregated view of both client and server APIs used in your project for HTTP and WebSocket protocols. The tool window can assist you when developing microservices and backend-frontend communication. It is also helpful for exploring third-party APIs.

Endpoints tool window

To navigate to the endpoint declaration from the Endpoints tool window, do one of the following:

  • Select Go to Declaration from the endpoint's context menu.

  • Select the endpoint and press Ctrl0B.

  • Double-click the endpoint.

In the Endpoints tool window, you can filter the list of endpoints by module, type, and framework. To list endpoints from external sources (for example, from remote OpenAPI specifications) , select External under Module.

note

The action is available if the OpenAPI Specifications plugin is installed and enabled.

Configure OpenAPI Sources: Add an external OpenAPI specification (for example, from SwaggerHub) to include endpoints from this specification in the Endpoints tool window and highlight them with a yellow background. In the OpenAPI Specifications window that opens, click the Add button in the Remote Specifications list, and specify the URL of an OpenAPI specification file or find an OpenAPI specification on SwaggerHub. This also adds URLs defined in the specification to code completion.

  • Compact List Items: Show only the endpoint addresses, without the type and framework.

  • Group by Module: Group endpoints from the same module.

  • Show From Libraries: Include endpoints defined in libraries.

  • Show From Tests: Include endpoints defined in tests.
