Managing REST APIs

Edit and copy an existing REST API to another project, and delete existing APIs using the APIs tab.

Procedure

  1. Access the APIs tab. The list of existing APIs of your project appears.
  2. Select the API that you want to modify and click the Edit icon.

    You are redirected to the API Details tab, where you can view the existing API details.

  3. Click Resources and Methods tab and then click the Edit icon to modify the resource.
    • You can edit the resources and methods of an API manually only if it is created from scratch.
    • If an API is imported through a Swagger file or URL, you must upload the modified swagger file or URL for the updated file to make resource and method changes.

What to do next

To copy an API, select the API that you want to copy to another project and click Copy, then choose the target project by clicking Select Project. Enter a new name in the Name field and click Save. A copy of the REST API with the new name appears in the REST APIs page of the target project.

To delete an API, select the API that you want to delete and click Delete, and confirm. The API is then permanently removed from your webMethods Integration tenant.

You can modify the access network settings for multiple APIs. Select the required APIs on the REST APIs page, then click Modify invocation access. For information about network access settings, see Creating REST APIs.
