Configuring Properties for a Global Policy
You must have the API Gateway's manage global policies functional privilege assigned.
The Policy Configuration tab on the Global Policy details page specifies the list of policies that are applicable for each policy stage in the Policy catalog section. Each policy in the Infographic section has properties that you must set to configure the policy's enforcement behavior.
*To configure the properties for a global policy
1. Click Policies in the title navigation bar.
2. Click the Global Policies tab.
A list of all available global policies appears. Use the Show drop-down list at the bottom of the page to set the maximum number of policies you want to display in a page.
3. Select the required policy.
The Global Policy details page appears.
4. Click Edit.
If you do not see the Edit button, it is probably because you do not have the API Gateway Administrator role to configure the properties of a global policy in API Gateway.

The policy information is provided in the following sections:
*Policy catalog - Transport, Identify and Access, Request Processing, Routing, Traffic Monitoring, Response Processing, Error Handling
*Infographic - List of applied policies

6. In the Policy catalog section, click the chevron to expand the required policy stage.
