Kong Partials API is one of 139 APIs that [Kong](https://apis.io/providers/kong/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. This API exposes 1 JSON Schema definition. Tagged areas include Partials. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, a JSON-LD context, a GitHub repository, an API reference, authentication docs, and 1 JSON Schema.

Some entities in Kong Gateway share common configuration settings that often need to be repeated. For example, multiple plugins that connect to Redis may require the same connection settings. Without Partials, you would need to replicate this configuration across all plugins. If the settings change, you would need to update each plugin individually.
