Integrated Governance Checks

APIGit provides seamless, real-time governance validation while you edit your API specifications. Once you’ve defined and applied governance rules to your API repositories, the platform continuously analyzes your specifications against these rules as you work.

How to Access Governance Validation

Follow these steps to access governance validation during editing:

1. Open your API specification in editing mode
2. Navigate to the Governance tab in the upper-right corner of the interface
3. Review the validation panel that appears, displaying any rule violations detected in your specification
4. Use the ruleset dropdown menu to switch between different rulesets and view specific validation results

Interactive Issue Resolution

The governance validation panel offers an interactive experience for efficient issue resolution:

• Each violation entry provides a clear description of the problem
• Click on any violation to be automatically directed to the exact line in your specification where the issue exists
• Make corrections directly in the editor and see violations resolve in real-time
• Track your progress as you systematically address all governance issues

This integrated approach allows you to maintain compliance with organizational standards throughout the development process rather than addressing governance issues after completion.
