Using OpenAPI and AsyncAPI Tags to Better Organize API Endpoints

What's this blog post about?

OpenAPI and AsyncAPI Tags are useful tools for organizing API endpoints in an API contract. They help categorize the contract by business function or logical objects, making it more readable and easier to understand. By defining tags at the root of the document and using them to group related endpoints, developers can improve the usability of their API contracts. Tags can also describe endpoint groups, link to additional documentation, and order endpoint groups in documentation. Some best practices for using OpenAPI and AsyncAPI tags include tagging all endpoints, making every tag unique, defining all tags in the root Tag Object, and ensuring that tags are meaningful and descriptive.
