    In one of our engagements, the customer is looking for the capability to have a Business process Modelling tool to design and optimize the business process workflow and then implement that workflow using the API gateway policies. Let's say we use CA Process Automation tool for the BPM part and we arrive at an optimized process workflow. We then need to implement this workflow in the API Gateway without much manual work. We can take an XML export from CA PAM but the XML formats for the API gateway policies and the PAM is different and hence we won't be able to import it in the gateway. Is there any other way or any previous use cases similar to this encountered with any customer where we could integrate the BPM tool (CA Process Automation or any similar tool) with our API Management?

    Hi Karthik,

     

    Is your goal to import data into the Gateway that would create policy based on the workflow? I have not come across this scenario before and cannot locate any resource indicating we have any support for this. In particular I have found no integration with CA PAM.
