title: "Add SDK examples"
description: "Add SDK code samples to your API documentation with autogenerated examples from Speakeasy and Stainless across multiple languages."
keywords: ["x-codeSamples", "SDK examples"]
---
If your users interact with your API through an SDK rather than direct network requests, use the `x-codeSamples` extension to add code samples to your OpenAPI document. Mintlify displays the samples on your OpenAPI pages.
Add this property to any request method. It has the following schema.
<ParamField body="lang" type="string" required>
The language of the code sample.
</ParamField>
<ParamField body="label" type="string">
The label for the sample. This is useful when providing multiple examples for a single endpoint.
</ParamField>
<ParamField body="source" type="string" required>
The source code of the sample.
</ParamField>
Here is an example of code samples for a plant tracking app, which has both a Bash CLI tool and a JavaScript SDK.
```yaml
paths:
/plants:
get:
# ...
x-codeSamples:
- lang: bash
label: List all unwatered plants
source: |
planter list -u
- lang: javascript
label: List all unwatered plants
source: |
const planter = require('planter');
planter.list({ unwatered: true });
- lang: bash
label: List all potted plants
source: |
planter list -p
- lang: javascript
label: List all potted plants
source: |
const planter = require('planter');
planter.list({ potted: true });
```
