OpenAPI docs

Utilities to handle OpenAPI automatic UI documentation, including Swagger UI (by default at /docs) and ReDoc (by default at /redoc).

fastapi.openapi.docs.get_swagger_ui_html

get_swagger_ui_html(
    *,
    openapi_url,
    title,
    swagger_js_url="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/swagger-ui-dist@5.9.0/swagger-ui-bundle.js",
    swagger_css_url="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/swagger-ui-dist@5.9.0/swagger-ui.css",
    swagger_favicon_url="https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/img/favicon.png",
    oauth2_redirect_url=None,
    init_oauth=None,
    swagger_ui_parameters=None
)

Generate and return the HTML that loads Swagger UI for the interactive API docs (normally served at /docs).

You would only call this function yourself if you needed to override some parts, for example the URLs to use to load Swagger UI's JavaScript and CSS.

Read more about it in the FastAPI docs for Configure Swagger UI and the FastAPI docs for Custom Docs UI Static Assets (Self-Hosting).
