Working with Plans

After a Product is published to a Catalog, you can work with the Plans in that Product.

Before you begin

Note: In the Help page of the Cloud Manager, API Manager, and API Designer user interfaces, click the Product information tile to find out information about your product and Git package versions. The API Designer product information is based on its associated management server, but the Git information is based on where it was downloaded from.

For details on configuring a Plan in a Product, see Editing a draft Product.

For details on Publishing a Product to a Catalog, see Publishing a Product.

To complete the tasks, you must either be the owner of the API provider organization, or you must be assigned a role that has either the Product > Manage or the Product > View permission for the Catalog. For more information, see Adding provider organization users and assigning roles and Managing Catalog membership. For information on configuring Product management permissions for a Catalog, see Creating and configuring Catalogs.
