Navigation syntax

Our navigation syntax is recursive which means you can make nested navigation groups. You don’t need to include .mdx in page names.

Regular Navigation

"navigation": {
  "tabs": [
    {
      "tab": "Docs",
      "groups": [
        {
          "group": "Getting Started",
          "pages": ["quickstart"]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

"navigation": {
  "tabs": [
    {
      "tab": "Docs",
      "groups": [
        {
          "group": "Getting Started",
          "pages": [
            "quickstart",
            {
              "group": "Nested Reference Pages",
              "pages": ["nested-reference-page"]
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Folders

Simply put your MDX files in folders and update the paths in docs.json. For example, to have a page at https://yoursite.com/your-folder/your-page you would make a folder called your-folder containing an MDX file called your-page.mdx.

You cannot use api for the name of a folder unless you nest it inside another folder. Mintlify uses Next.js which reserves the top-level api folder for internal server calls. A folder name such as api-reference would be accepted.

Navigation With Folder

"navigation": {
  "tabs": [
    {
      "tab": "Docs",
      "groups": [
        {
          "group": "Group Name",
          "pages": ["your-folder/your-page"]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Hidden pages

MDX files not included in docs.json will not show up in the sidebar but are accessible through the search bar and by linking directly to them.
