# Introduction

IcePanel is a collaborative diagramming and modelling tool for software architecture.

IcePanel is built around the

[C4 model](https://c4model.com/)

.

Our [OpenAPI 3.1](https://swagger.io/specification/) spec can be found at [api.icepanel.io](https://api.icepanel.io/) and imported into [Postman](https://learning.postman.com/docs/integrations/available-integrations/working-with-openAPI/).

JSON Schemas for IcePanel data types are available at `/v1/schemas/{schemaName}`, for example [`https://api.icepanel.io/v1/schemas/LandscapeImportData`](https://api.icepanel.io/v1/schemas/LandscapeImportData). These can be used to validate or generate typed data structures against the IcePanel API.
