Summary

An OpenAPI [5] description details the actions exposed by a REST API. A service is represented by a JSON document describing requests, responses, and security information such as authentication and authorization rules for an API action. Schema objects describe the request and response messages and can be combined to form composite or specialized objects using composed or polymorphic expressions. However, Schema properties can be vague. To clarify their meaning, Schema properties may be associated with a semantic model. Further, to resolve ambiguities in service descriptions, OpenAPI descriptions are instantiated to a reference ontology. However, the mapping of composed or polymorphed Schema objects to the ontology generated additional problems to the mapping process. The mapping of composite Schema objects to the ontology is the focus of this work.
