Working with Spaces

If Spaces are enabled in a Catalog, you can select a specific Space to work with in the API Manager user interface. This enables you to manage the Products and APIs that are specific to that Space, and control user access to the Space.

Procedure

To work with a Space, complete the following steps:

  1. On the Dashboard of the API Manager UI, select the Catalog that you want to work with.
  2. In the submenu navigation banner, click the Spaces menu drop-down arrow to select the Space that you want to work with. The Products tab for the Space opens.
    The side bar of the Settings tab contains the following links:
    • Overview
    • Approvals
    • Gateway
    • Endpoints
    • Portal
    • Roles
    • Policies
    • Extensions

    Use the Roles link to manage Space security; for more information, see Managing user access in a Space.

    The remaining links in the side bar display read-only pages that show the corresponding settings for the Catalog that contains the Space.
