Group related links in your navbar with new dropdown menus. Organize resources, tools, or external links under a single button to keep your header clean.

docs.yml
1navbar-links:
2  - type: dropdown

4    icon: fa-solid fa-seedling  # optional icon
5    links:

7        href: https://example.com/plants  # destination URL
8        icon: fa-regular fa-leaf  # optional icon

API Explorer direct requests

You can now send API Explorer requests directly to your API instead of through Fern’s proxy. This is useful for testing Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) configuration and debugging authentication flows.

docs.yml
1settings:
2  disable-explorer-proxy: true

Your API must have CORS enabled to allow requests from the documentation domain.

Learn more in the docs.yml reference documentation.
