  Apidog is an all-in-one API development platform that connects the entire API lifecycle: visual API design,
  multi-protocol debugging (HTTP, REST, GraphQL, gRPC, WebSocket, SOAP, SSE), automated testing with a CLI, smart
  mocking, and published interactive documentation - all in a single collaborative workspace. As of 2026 Apidog also
  ships native MCP support: an apidog-mcp-server that feeds API specs to AI coding assistants (Cursor, VS Code + Cline)
  and an MCP Client inside the desktop app that visually debugs MCP servers over STDIO and Streamable HTTP with auto
  OAuth 2.0 configuration.

    Apidog's public REST API at https://api.apidog.com lets developers programmatically import API specifications into
    Apidog projects (OpenAPI 3, Swagger 2, Postman Collection v2) and export Apidog projects back out as OpenAPI 2.0,
    3.0, or 3.1. The API is versioned via the X-Apidog-Api-Version header (current: 2024-03-28) and authenticated with
    a personal API access token sent as a Bearer Token.
