+If using virtual directories (with IIS or a reverse proxy, for example), set the Swagger endpoint to a relative path using the `./` prefix. For example, `./swagger/v1/swagger.json`. Using `/swagger/v1/swagger.json` instructs the app to look for the JSON file at the true root of the URL (plus the route prefix, if used). For example, `http://localhost:<port>/<route_prefix>/swagger/v1/swagger.json` instead of `http://localhost:<port>/<virtual_directory>/<route_prefix>/swagger/v1/swagger.json`.
