Unsupported 'format' value 'uuid' in OAS-Validaion

[Teja]

Getting deployment error for OAS-Validation policy saying that Unsupported 'format' value 'uuid

openapispec code :

parameters:
        - in: header
          name: req-id
          schema:
            type: string
            format: uuid
          required: true

 This error i'm getting only in hybrid org but not in edge

Can anyone help me here. Thanks in advance

Additional formats like uuid are not part of the official OAS 3.0.x spec (Reference). Here is the quote "Formats such as "email", "uuid", and so on, MAY be used even though undefined by this specification." 

This is the reason for the error. There is an unofficial CLI based tool that is capable of handling such formats and generating proxies.

Also, Teja, 

We'll look into changing Apigee hybrid to relax the validation of formats. ref: b/213608497

Hi @MarciSoos

The bug you referenced has been fixed, for more than 1 year. So if you use an OpenAPI Spec with UUID format, you should not see the problem of

Getting deployment error for OAS-Validation policy saying that Unsupported 'format' value 'uuid

Are you seeing a problem?
