Scheer PAS API Management supports the creation and management of two different types of APIs: public APIs and private APIs. A private API cannot be consumed by everyone: They require an API Key in order to be called. To consume a private API, a client and a contract must be created. Compared to a public API, private APIs require more complex configuration. But you can control the access to private APIs in a very fine-grained manner, you have insight into various metrics that can be displayed per client and you can map different access levels by assigning restricted usage plans to a private API. Refer to API Types for more detailed information. |
