Summary

ReadMe has introduced enhancements to its documentation platform, allowing for more personalized user experiences through the integration of user-specific information. By enabling users to log in using custom OAuth or JWT links, ReadMe supports the embedding of unique user data directly within the documentation and API Explorer, thus streamlining the user experience. The custom OAuth flow, available to Enterprise plan customers, is adaptable to various OAuth implementations by allowing direct code edits in a sandboxed environment. Additionally, the "Magic" JWT Link feature enables seamless user login and automatic data inclusion by crafting a link that conveys user information. These new features are complemented by user analytics, providing insights into user demographics and professional backgrounds. These innovations aim to enhance user interaction with documentation and provide developers with valuable user insights.
