Introduction OpenAPI Specification [oas] version 3 and above is a consolidated standard for describing HTTP APIs using the JSON [JSON] and YAML [YAML] data format. To increase interoperability when processing API specifications and leverage content negotiation mechanisms when exchanging OpenAPI Specification resources this specification register the following media-types: application/yaml, application/schema+json, application/ schema-instance+json, application/openapi+json and application/ openapi+yaml. Moreover it defines and registers the +yaml structured syntax suffix. 1.1. Notational Conventions The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT", "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "NOT RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119] [RFC8174] when, and only when, they appear in all capitals, as shown here. These words may also appear in this document in lower case as plain English words, absent their normative meanings. This document uses the Augmented BNF defined in [RFC5234] and updated by [RFC7405]. The terms "content", "content negotiation", "resource", and "user agent" in this document are to be interpreted as in [SEMANTICS]. 2. Media Type registrations This section describes the information required to register the above media types according to [MEDIATYPE] 2.1. Media Type application/yaml The following information serves as the registration form for the application/yaml media type.

The OpenAPI Media Types The OpenAPI Specification Media Types convey OpenAPI document (OAS) files as defined in [oas] for version 3.0.0 and above. Those files can be serialized in [JSON] or [YAML]. Since there are multiple OpenAPI Specification versions, those media-types support the version parameter. The following examples conveys the desire of a client to receive an OpenAPI Specification resource preferably in the following order: 1. openapi 3.1 in YAML 2. openapi 3.0 in YAML 3. any openapi version in json Polli Expires 8 September 2022 [Page 5] Internet-Draft REST API Media Types March 2022 Accept: application/openapi+yaml;version=3.1, application/openapi+yaml;version=3.0;q=0.5, application/openapi+json;q=0.3 2.3.1.

Polli Expires 8 September 2022 [Page 7] Internet-Draft REST API Media Types March 2022 Author: See Authors' Addresses section Change controller: n/a 2.4. JSON Schema Media Types JSON Schema is a declarative domain-specific language for validating and annotating JSON documents (see [jsonschema]). This document registers the media types associated with JSON Schema. There are many dialects of JSON Schema in wide use today. The JSON Schema maintainers have released several dialects including draft-04, draft-07, and draft 2020-12. There are also several third-party JSON Schema dialects in wide use including the ones defined for use in OpenAPI and MongoDB. This specification defines little more than how to identify the dialect while leaving most of the semantics of the schema up to the dialect to define. Clients MUST use the following order of precedence for determining the dialect of a schema. * The $schema keyword (Section 2.4.1) * The "schema" media type parameter (Section 2.4.2) * The context of the enclosing document. This applies only when a schema is embedded within a document. The enclosing document could be another schema in the case of a bundled schema or it could be another type of document that includes schemas such as an OpenAPI document. * If none of the above result in identifying the dialect, client behavior is undefined. 2.4.1. The "$schema" Keyword The $schema keyword is used as a JSON Schema dialect identifier. The value of this keyword MUST be a URI [RFC3986]. This URI SHOULD identify a meta-schema that can be used to validate that the schema is syntactically correct according to the dialect the URI identifies. The dialect SHOULD define where the $schema keyword is allowed and/or recognized in a schema, but it is RECOMMENDED that dialects do not allow the schema to change within the same Schema Resource. Polli Expires 8 September 2022 [Page 8] Internet-Draft REST API Media Types March 2022 2.4.2. Identifying a Schema via a Media Type Parameter Media types MAY allow for a schema media type parameter, to support content negotiation based on schema identifier (see Section 12 of [SEMANTICS]). The schema media type parameter MUST be a URI- reference [RFC3986]. The schema parameter identifies a schema that provides semantic information about the resource the media type represents. When using the application/schema+json media type, the schema parameter identifies the dialect of the schema the media type represents. The schema URI is opaque and SHOULD NOT automatically be dereferenced. Since schema doesn't necessarily point to a network location, the "describedby" relation is used for linking to a downloadable schema. The following is an example of content negotiation where a user agent can accept two different versions of a "pet" resource. Each resource version is identified by a unique JSON Schema. Request: NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 GET /pet/1234 HTTP/1.1 Host: foo.example Accept: \ application/schema-instance+json; schema="/schemas/v2/pet"; q=0.2, \ application/schema-instance+json; schema="/schemas/v1/pet"; q=0.1 Response: NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 HTTP/1.1 200 Ok Content-Type: \ application/schema-instance+json; schema="/schemas/v2/pet" { "petId": "1234", "name": "Pluto", ... } In the following example, the user agent is able to accept two possible dialects of JSON Schema and the server replies with the latest one. Polli Expires 8 September 2022 [Page 9] Internet-Draft REST API Media Types March 2022 Request: NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 GET /schemas/v2/pet HTTP/1.1 Host: foo.example Accept: application/schema+json; \ schema="https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema", \ application/schema+json; \ schema="http://json-schema.org/draft-07/schema#" Response: NOTE: '\' line wrapping per RFC 8792 HTTP/1.1 200 OK Content-Type: \ application/schema+json; \ schema="https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema" { "$id": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema", "$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema", ... } 2.4.3. Linking to a Schema It is RECOMMENDED that instances described by a schema provide a link to a downloadable JSON Schema using the link relation describedby, as defined by Linked Data Protocol 1.0, section 8.1 [W3C.REC-ldp-20150226]. In HTTP, such links can be attached to any response using the Link header [LINK]. Link: ; rel="describedby" 2.4.4. Fragment Identifiers Two fragment identifier structures are supported: JSON Pointers and plain-names. The use of JSON Pointers as URI fragment identifiers is described in [RFC6901]. Fragment identifiers that are empty or start with a /, MUST be interpreted as JSON Pointer fragment identifiers. Polli Expires 8 September 2022 [Page 10] Internet-Draft REST API Media Types March 2022 Plain-name fragment identifiers reference locally named locations in the document. The dialect determines how plain-name identifiers map to locations within the document. All fragment identifiers that do not match the JSON Pointer syntax MUST be interpreted as plain name fragment identifiers. 2.4.5. Media Type application/schema+json The application/schema+json media type represents JSON Schema. This schema can be an official dialect or a third-party dialect. The following information serves as the registration form for the application/schema+json media type. *Type name*: application *Subtype name*: schema+json *Required parameters*: N/A *Optional parameters*: * *schema*: A URI identifying the JSON Schema dialect the schema was written for. If this value conflicts with the value of the $schema keyword in the schema, the $schema keyword takes precedence. *Encoding considerations*: Same as [JSON] *Security considerations*: See the "Security Considerations" section of [jsonschema] *Interoperability considerations*: See the "General Considerations" section of [jsonschema] *Published specification*: (this document) *Applications that use this media type*: JSON Schema is used in a variety of applications including API servers and clients that validate JSON requests and responses, IDEs that valid configuration files, databases that store JSON, and more. *Fragment identifier considerations*: See Section 2.4.4 *Additional information*: * *Deprecated alias names for this type*: N/A * *Magic number(s)*: N/A Polli Expires 8 September 2022 [Page 11] Internet-Draft REST API Media Types March 2022 * *File extension(s)*: json, schema.json * *Macintosh file type code(s)*: N/A *Person and email address to contact for further information*: See Authors' Addresses section. *Intended usage*: COMMON *Restrictions on usage*: N/A. *Author*: See Authors' Addresses section. *Change controller*: N/A 2.4.6. Media Type application/schema-instance+json The application/schema-instance+json media type is an extension of the [JSON] media type that just adds the schema media type parameter and fragment identification. The following information serves as the registration form for the application/schema-instance+json media type. *Type name*: application *Subtype name*: schema-instance+json *Required parameters*: N/A *Optional parameters*: * *schema*: A URI identifying a JSON Schema that provides semantic information about this JSON representation. *Encoding considerations*: Same as [JSON] *Security considerations*: Same as [JSON] *Interoperability considerations*: Same as [JSON] *Published specification*: (this document) *Applications that use this media type*: JSON Schema is used in a variety of applications including API servers and clients that validate JSON requests and responses, IDEs that valid configuration files, databases that store JSON, and more. *Fragment identifier considerations*: See Section 2.4.4 Polli Expires 8 September 2022 [Page 12] Internet-Draft REST API Media Types March 2022 *Additional information*: * *Deprecated alias names for this type*: N/A * *Magic number(s)*: N/A * *File extension(s)*: json * *Macintosh file type code(s)*: N/A *Person and email address to contact for further information*: See Authors' Addresses section. *Intended usage*: COMMON *Restrictions on usage*: N/A *Author*: See Authors' Addresses section. *Change controller*: N/A 3. Interoperability Considerations 3.1. YAML Media Types 3.1.1. YAML is an Evolving Language YAML is an evolving language and, in time, some features have been added, and others removed. While this document is based on a given YAML version [YAML], media types registration does not imply a specific version. This allows content negotiation of version-independent YAML resources. Implementers concerned about features related to a specific YAML version can specify it in the documents using the %YAML directive (see Section 6.8.1 of [YAML]). 3.1.2. YAML and JSON When using flow collection styles (see Section 7.4 of [YAML]) a YAML document could look like JSON [JSON], thus similar interoperability considerations apply. When using YAML as a more efficient format to serialize information intented to be consumed as JSON, information can be discarded: this includes comments (see Section 3.2.3.3 of [YAML]) and alias nodes (see Section 7.1 of [YAML]), that do not have a JSON counterpart. Polli Expires 8 September 2022 [Page 13] Internet-Draft REST API Media Types March 2022 # This comment will be lost # when serializing in JSON. Title: type: string maxLength: &text_limit 64 Name: type: string maxLength: *text_limit # Replaced by the value 64. Figure 1: JSON replaces alias nodes with static values. Implementers need to ensure that relevant information will not be lost during the processing. For example, they might consider acceptable that alias nodes are replaced by static values. In some cases an implementer may want to define a list of allowed YAML features, taking into account that the following ones might have interoperability issues with JSON: * non UTF-8 encoding, since YAML supports UTF-16 and UTF-32 in addition to UTF-8; * mapping keys that are not strings; * circular references represented using anchor (see Section 4.1.2 and Figure 3). * .inf and .nan float values, since JSON does not support them; * non-JSON types, including the ones associated to tags like !!timestamp that were deployed in older YAML versions; * tags in general, and specifically ones that do not map to JSON types like custom and local tags such as !!python/object and !mytag (see Section 2.4 of [YAML]); non-json-keys: 2020-01-01: a timestamp [0, 1]: a sequence ? {k: v} : a map non-json-value: 2020-01-01 Figure 2: Example of mapping keys not supported in JSON Polli Expires 8 September 2022 [Page 14] Internet-Draft REST API Media Types March 2022 4. Security Considerations Security requirements for both media type and media type suffix registrations are discussed in Section 4.6 of [MEDIATYPE]. 4.1. YAML Media Types 4.1.1. Arbitrary Code Execution Care should be used when using YAML tags, because their implementation might trigger unexpected code execution. Code execution in deserializers should be disabled by default, and only be enabled explicitly. In those cases, the implementation should ensure - for example, via specific functions - that the code execution results in strictly bounded time/memory limits. Many implementations provide safe deserializers addressing these issues. 4.1.2. Resource exhaustion YAML documents are rooted, connected, directed graphs and can contain reference cycles, so they can't be treated as simple trees (see Section 3.2.1 of [YAML]). An implementation that attempts to do that can infinite-loop at some point (e.g. when trying to serialize a YAML document in JSON). x: &x y: *x Figure 3: A cyclic document Even if a document is not cyclic, treating it as a tree could lead to improper behaviors (such as the "billion laughs" problem). x1: &a1 ["a", "a"] x2: &a2 [*a1, *a1] x3: &a3 [*a2, *a2] Figure 4: A billion laughs document This can be addressed using processors limiting the anchor recursion depth and validating the input before processing it; even in these cases it is important to carefully test the implementation you are going to use. The same considerations apply when serializing a YAML representation graph in a format that do not support reference cycles (see Section 3.1.2).
