With API Management, you can specify whether users can call a private API directly or whether they need to obtain permission. While you define and manage the settings of your APIs in API Management, your customers have access to your APIs via the Developer Portal.
Portal visitors who wish to use a private API must first register for it. If approval is required for the plan, the user wants to subscribe to, he has to wait for an API Management user with approval authorization to answer his request.
