Short answer. An OpenAPI 3.1 document needs openapi, info, and paths. Each path lists operations with parameters, a request body, and responses; schemas use full JSON Schema 2020-12.
Example

paths:
/api/v1/pages/{slug}:

operationId: getPage
parameters: [{ name: slug, in: path, required: true, schema: { type: string } }]
responses:
'200': { description: Page, content: { application/json: { schema: { $ref: '#/components/schemas/Page' } } } }
'404': { description: Not found }
components:
schemas:
Page: { type: object, required: [slug, content], properties: { slug: { type: string }, content: { type: string } } }
