This tutorial explains step by step how to create all necessary elements of API Management to be able to manage a public API. Public APIs are APIs that are accessible by any consumer. However, Scheer PAS API Management still allows to restrict access to public APIs by adding rules to them, the so-called policies. You can also restrict the visibility of each API to ensure that only a defined group of persons can find it.
ACME Corp.uses Scheer PAS API Management to provide customers with access to the ACME APIs. For example, ACME Corp. is running the test service RESTAPI_Echo_Example which implements a very basic REST service that is perfect for testing. Now David Stringer of ACME Corp. wants to give developers in general the opportunity to use this service. So David is going to setup public API access to the service RESTAPI_Echo_Example. You are going to help him with that task. |
