Sun, 23 Nov 2025 11:52:54 +0900

Abstract

Fields Builder for Google APIs is a client-side web application that streamlines constructing the fields parameter. It parses Discovery documents into interactive trees, enabling developers to visually select nested resources, implement Partial Response, and optimize API payload sizes without manual syntax errors.

Introduction

FieldsBuilderForGoogleAPIs is a specialized Web Application designed to streamline the construction of the fields parameter for Google APIs.

Since the update of the official Google API Explorer, developers have found it increasingly difficult to visually construct the fields parameter. This tool bridges that gap by parsing official Discovery documents to build an interactive, navigable tree view of the response schema.

Description

After the API explorer was updated, the fields of APIs cannot be created by the web interface. But it is important for using the fields property. Because when the fields property is used, only the required values can be retrieved. This leads to the low cost. And even when * is used, there are some cases that all fields cannot be retrieved. So I created this as a Web Application. This web application can run with the standalone. No authorization and no scopes are required. This only creates the fields value for Google APIs.
