required-string-property-missing-min-length
Requires that every required property in the API definition with type string has a minLength.
| OAS | Compatibility |
|---|---|
| 2.0 | ✅ |
| 3.0 | ✅ |
| 3.1 | ✅ |
API design principles
The minLength keyword constrains string values. When a property of type string is required, defining the minLength helps prevent common mistakes, such as empty strings. Use the minLength property as a best practice to ensure data integrity and enhances the overall quality of the API.
