Overview

When combined with the existing API Policy Manager, the API Manager and Portal Manager provide capabilities from API development, lifecycle management, and dashboard monitoring. You can create APIs in SnapLogic using your own API specifications, or build them from your Pipelines and SnapLogic assets. You can also publish APIs to the Developer portal, which you can customize with your own branding. Users external to SnapLogic can explore the APIs you build in the SnapLogic platform in the Developer Portal's API CatalogOrg admins can use the Portal Manager to customize the appearance and URL of your Developer Portal landing page. You can make your APIs accessible to users outside of the SnapLogic ecosystem in the API Portal. Org Admins can publish, unpublish, deprecate, and retire versions of APIs. As an Org Admin, you can create a Developer Portal for your API developers to publish their APIs. The API Management > Portal Manager is the administrative console where you can manage the lifecycle of your APIs. The Developer Portal is the public facing page that consumers use to explore those APIs.

Key Features

• Design First: The /apim space supports the creation of APIs from the Open API Specification (OAS) 2.0. You can design an API based on your specification and then upload a file of it or reference a URL with the specification.
• Versioning: The ability to create multiple versions of an API based using an OAS 2.0 specification. You can modify the specification for your initial API, then create new versions from those modified specification versions.
• Hierarchy Permissions: A comprehensive set of permission types that provides Org admins the ability to define permissions at every level of the hierarchy. As an API developer, you can set permissions on your versions.
• Suite of API Policies: The Manage API Policy wizard that enables you to enable various authorization, authentication, and traffic control policies at the /apim space, API, and Version levels.
• API LifeCycle Management: The capability of publishing APIs to the developer portal. All the actions important to the lifecycle of an API are available, such as unpublishing, re-publishing, deprecating, and retiring your APIs.
Manage your API Catalog: The Portal Manager is a new console for managing the developer portal for your Org. You can now customize the new Developer Portal with your own branding and URL suffix. The Portal Manager also enables you to view API status on the API Catalog

• Developer Portal: A page for non-SnapLogic users to explore your APIs. API consumers can search and browse through APIs. Each API provides basic documentation and its specification.
• API Dashboard: The dashboard displays usage and traffic metrics of your APIs. As an Org admin or Pipeline Designer, you can track the popularity of an API or analyze target and response errors to understand how to enhance the API consumer experience.
