Signing up is easy
The best way to get started is to sign up for the free plan, which is the Lite edition of IBM API Connect®. Once you register, you’ll automatically receive an IBMid (if you don’t already have one) and an instance of API Connect on IBM Cloud™. Then, simply verify your email address for direct log in to API Connect.
