Document auto-generated API page previews in the web editor

[mintlify]

Summary

• Documents the new auto-generated API page preview feature in the web editor
• Updates editor/pages.mdx with a section explaining that OpenAPI-referenced endpoints now appear as read-only preview pages
• Updates editor/navigation.mdx with a section explaining the locked navigation behavior for auto-generated pages

The web editor now generates and displays preview pages for each endpoint when your navigation references an OpenAPI specification. These pages are read-only — users can preview API documentation content directly in the editor without deploying, but cannot edit, rename, delete, or reorder the generated pages.

Note

Low Risk
Low risk documentation-only change that adds guidance for a new editor behavior without touching runtime code.

Overview
Adds documentation for auto-generated API page previews in the web editor when navigation references an OpenAPI spec.

Explains that generated endpoint pages appear in the navigation tree for preview, and that these pages (and their parent groups) are locked/read-only—they can’t be edited, renamed, reordered, or deleted; customization happens via the OpenAPI spec (x-mint) or docs.json/spec updates.
