API grouping
Grouping API based on various categories helps consumers locate APIs easily. When you are offering APIs to help consumers manage their sales and ordering better, classifying the APIs under Sales and Ordering helps them locate these APIs easily.
The default groups available under which you can group the APIs are Finance Banking and
Insurance, Sales and Ordering, Search, and Transportation and
Warehousing. If you want to include more groups, you can update the property
apiGroupingPossibleValues
under Administration >
Extended settings section that enables API grouping. You can modify the
existing list of groups by deleting or adding new group names as comma separated values in this
field. Ensure that the group name does not contain a comma as part of the name.
API grouping can be applied in one of these ways:
- When you create an API from scratch
- When you edit an API
You can select one or more groups in the API grouping field. When an API is published to Developer Portal, the published APIs in Developer Portal are grouped depending on the group assigned.
