  • 1.  What is the Way to get Access to Swagger Orchestrator API via API Help Center in VCF 9.0 in All-Apps-Org?

    Posted Dec 27, 2025 12:44 AM

    Hello all, 👋

    yesterday I tried to access the Orchestrator's Swagger API in the All-Apps-Org Hands-On Lab (HOL). Unfortunately I could not find the standard way.

    VCFA 9 offers a new item in the settings called API Help Center, both in Automation Provider and in Automation Org for All Apps.

    API Help Center Menu Item in Settings Menu

    When I open the API Help Center in Automation Provider, I cannot find access to the Swagger Orchestrator API.

    API Help Center Provider
    When I open the API Help Center in Automation for All Apps Org, I cannot find access to the Swagger Orchestrator API here either.
    API Help Center All Apps Org
    Automation APIs Available in All Apps Org

    I miss the Orchestrator API.

    What is the correct way to get access to Swagger Orchestrator API via API Help Center in VCF 9.0 in All-Apps-Org?

    Thanks for hints and tips.
    Best regards
    Stefan

    You can get it from the UI 

    1. Log in to VCFA as  Admin
    2. Click your username (top right)
    3. Click "API Documentation"
    4. Select "Automation APIs"
    5. Select "Orchestrator Gateway"
    6. There  is link to direct URL path for swagger Orchestrator

    Hello @ANANT KUMAR,

    thank you very much for your reply.

    Sorry, but I can not find the link.

    Here an image from the HOL, can you please show me where I can find the link.

    I know one direct link, e.g. in the HOL https://auto-a.site-a.vcf.lab/vco/api/docs/swagger-ui/index.html, unfortunately the authorization does not work here, e.g. User Service, access is forbidden - error 403 not 401.

    Thanks again and best regards
    Stefan

    Hello @ANANT KUMAR,

    thank you very much for your reply.

    Sorry, but all I get is the Open API specification of Automation Orchestrator Gateway.

    I am searching for the Swagger of the Orchestrator API, not Automation Orchestrator Gateway API, they are different.

    Best regards
    Stefan
