Everything you need to ship docs developers actually use
Three things most teams stitch together from four tools. Apidoke does them in one.
Built-in try-it console
Readers call your real endpoints from inside the docs, set headers, params and a body, hit send, see the live response. No Postman, no copy-paste.
Publish in one click
Flip a project to public and it's live at a clean, shareable URL. Keep it private while you draft. Every change is versioned, with one-click restore.
From blank page to live docs in three steps
1
Write
Describe your API in API Blueprint, a clean, Markdown-based format. The split editor previews it instantly.
→
2
Preview & test
See the three-column reference exactly as readers will. Test endpoints live in the try-it console before you ship.
→
3
Publish
Make it public and share the URL, or keep it private to your team. Roll back to any previous version anytime.
Editor
A split editor with a live preview
Write on the left, see the rendered reference on the right. Toggle split, editor-only or preview-only. Auto-save keeps a running history so you never lose work.
- Live preview as you type
- Auto-save with version history
- API Blueprint syntax, Markdown you already know
Try-it console
Docs your readers can actually run
Every endpoint gets a live console. Readers fill in headers, query and path params, and a request body, then send a real request and read the response, status, timing, headers and all.
- Real HTTP requests, sent from the reader's browser
- Path-param substitution and JSON formatting
- Tokens stay client-side, they never touch our servers
Versioning & publishing
Versioned by default, public when you're ready
Every save snapshots a version you can restore in one click. Keep projects private while drafting, then publish to a clean URL, no deploy, no rebuild.
- One-click restore to any previous version
- Public / private toggle per project
- Shareable URL the moment you publish

Questions, answered
What is Apidoke?
Apidoke is a self-hosted platform for writing, previewing, and publishing interactive API documentation. You author in API Blueprint, preview live in a split editor, and publish a three-column reference with a built-in try-it console.
Is Apidoke free?
Yes, you can start for free, create projects, and publish public docs at no cost. Apidoke is also self-hostable, so you can run it on your own infrastructure.
What is API Blueprint?
API Blueprint is an open, Markdown-based language for describing web APIs. Apidoke uses the API Blueprint 1A format, so your documentation is plain, portable text.
Does the try-it console store my API tokens?
No. The try-it console sends requests directly from the reader’s browser to your API, so authentication headers and tokens never pass through Apidoke’s servers.
