    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for automatically cataloging updated Application Programming Interface (API) specifications with updated version numbers. The API specifications may have been previously published to an application exchange platform. An automatic cataloging tool installed at an API development system may identify an updated API specification committed to an API specification repository. The automatic cataloging tool may identify a base API specification that has been previously published and confirm that a change has been made. The base API specification may correspond to a particular API development branch that has been updated. The automatic cataloging tool may also apply a versioning strategy to automatically determine an updated version number for the updated API specification. The application exchange platform may then replace the previous API specification with the updated API specification and the updated version number.
