::: tip New in 3.15.0 The @openapi annotation was added in version 3.15.0. :::

Per-routine override for OpenAPI document inclusion and section grouping. Two sub-commands: hide an endpoint from the document entirely, or replace its default schema-name tag with one or more custom tags.

The HTTP endpoint itself is unaffected — @openapi hide only suppresses the spec entry. The endpoint is still reachable, still respects @authorize, still runs the same SQL.

When the OpenAPI plugin is not loaded, both sub-commands are no-ops — safe to leave on a routine regardless of how the host is configured.

@openapi                  # hide from document (default action)
@openapi hide             # hide from document
@openapi hidden           # alias for hide
@openapi ignore           # alias for hide

@openapi tag <name>             # replace default schema tag with <name>
@openapi tags <a>, <b>, <c>     # replace default tag with multiple tags

Tag values preserve their original casing — @openapi tag Partner API produces a Partner API tag, not partner api.

@openapi is the first filter applied — it wins over IncludeSchemas, ExcludeSchemas, NameSimilarTo, NameNotSimilarTo, and RequiresAuthorizationOnly. See Filter order in the OpenAPI config reference.

This means @openapi hide reliably keeps a routine out of the document even when broad config filters would otherwise include it (e.g. when IncludeSchemas allows the schema).

create function refresh_materialized_views()
returns void
language sql security definer as $$
  refresh materialized view concurrently revenue_summary;
  refresh materialized view concurrently user_activity;
$$;

comment on function refresh_materialized_views() is '
HTTP POST
@authorize admin
@openapi hide
';

The endpoint stays reachable at POST /api/refresh-materialized-views for admin callers — it just isn't advertised in the generated openapi.json.

As a SQL file endpoint (sql/refresh-materialized-views.sql):

-- HTTP POST
-- @authorize admin
-- @openapi hide
refresh materialized view concurrently revenue_summary;

By default, endpoints are tagged with their schema name — every routine in public lands in a public section in Swagger UI / ReDoc. @openapi tag overrides that.

comment on function partner_get_orders(_partner_id text) is '
HTTP GET /api/partner/orders
@authorize partner
@openapi tag Partner API
';

comment on function partner_create_order(_partner_id text, _order_json text) is '
HTTP POST /api/partner/orders
@authorize partner
@openapi tag Partner API
';

Both endpoints group under a single Partner API section in Swagger UI instead of the default public tag.

comment on function get_dashboard_summary() is '
HTTP GET /api/dashboard
@authorize
@openapi tags Dashboard, Reports
';

The endpoint appears in both the Dashboard and Reports sections.

@openapi hide is checked before IncludeSchemas etc., so even when broad filters would include the routine, @openapi hide keeps it out:

{
  "NpgsqlRest": {
    "OpenApiOptions": {
      "IncludeSchemas": ["partner"]
    }
  }
}

-- Lives in partner schema, but marked hidden — won't appear in the partner document.

HTTP GET /api/partner/_diagnostic
@authorize partner
@openapi hide
