Summary
Documents the new client API for pre-filling OpenAPI API Playground server variables from custom JavaScript.
Changes
Context
The triggering source change exposes these methods under
window.mintlify.api.playground.https://github.com/mintlify/mint/pull/9823
Note
Low Risk
Documentation-only changes to MDX; no runtime or application code is modified.
Overview
Documents how custom JavaScript can drive OpenAPI server variables in the API Playground via
window.mintlify.api.playground.setServerVariablesandclearServerVariables.The new Set API Playground server variables section explains post-load use cases (auth, tenant switches), that each call replaces runtime overrides with precedence over OpenAPI defaults and saved values, pre-init call queuing, session-scoped behavior until full refresh, and warnings against putting secrets in server variables. Page description and keywords are updated in all four locales; Spanish, French, and Chinese pages add the same guidance with locale-specific detail (e.g. omitted keys, no
localStoragewrites) where the English page is shorter.Reviewed by Cursor Bugbot for commit 049f812. Bugbot is set up for automated code reviews on this repo. Configure here.
