Layer7 API Management

Background

The attached file provides an example implementation that queries the local API Gateway using the RESTMAN API. This query will provide a table of cluster-wide properties that are referred to in the policies for published services and fragments. This can be valuable for determining what services or policies will be impacted when a cluster-wide property is changed.

This service will accept HTTP parameters in an HTTP GET. It requires the use of the REST Management API and a custom published service.

Implementation

1. Log in to the Policy Manager as a user able to publish services or policies
2. Deploy the REST Management API: REST Management API - CA API Gateway - 8.3 - CA Wiki
3. Publish a new Web API
4. Specify a custom resolution path (for example, find)
5. Import the attached service to the new service
6. Consume the service in a browser or other HTTP(S) client: https://gateway.domain.com:8443/find?key=<property>
