The standard way for creating APIs is to first define the API contract, use that to generate classes and write your application around it. But what happens when the application is already in place and is actively being used by millions around the world and does not have an API contract?

We faced this issue when we set out to find a single source of truth for OpenSearch APIs. Finding none and realizing that we need to create one, we set out on a journey to create asuch specification.

This talk will deal with:
* Experience with Jest client and frustration with freeform request bodies as a customer
* The stages of development including ideation, PoC, RFC, choosing the technologies, gaining consensus and implementation
* setting up the project and integration framework (while ensuring frugality and complete coverage)
* Opening up the project to community contribution after initial implementation
* Adoption by the clients team
* Switch from Smithy to OpenAPI based on community discussion
and the FUTURE!
