Transforms

Transforms let you reshape your OpenAPI spec during SDK generation without editing the source file. Define transforms in your stainless.yaml config file, and Stainless applies them automatically.

Use transforms to:

• Fix incorrect types in auto-generated specs

• Add missing required fields while you fix the source spec

• Rename properties to avoid language conflicts

• Add Stainless metadata (x-stainless-naming, x-stainless-skip)

• Remove incorrect defaults or deprecated fields
