Publishing an API

When you have finished the configuration for an API, you have to publish it to the runtime gateway. This can be done from any tab on the API details page by clicking the Publish button in the basic settings. If successful, the status of the API will change from api_status_created.png to api_status_published.png and a button Publish will disappear.

If the API cannot yet be published, the notification Why can't I publish? will appear near the Publish button.

Click this notification to open the Publish Checklist. The checklist provides details about what information is still required before the API can be published.

Click icon api_icon_checklist_info.png to display further information about this point of the checklist.

If you want to switch directly to the page where the mentioned settings can be configured, click icon api_icon_checklist_switch.png .

Once the API has been published, the status in the basic settings will change to api_status_published.png .

You will still be able to change the API configuration. After at least one change is made, the status api_status_published.png extended by the tag api_status_modified.png . You will have to Re-Publish the API to the gateway to make the modifications available. Doing so will update all information about the API in the gateway:
