Creating a Simple Alias
You must have the API Gateway's manage aliases functional privilege assigned to perform this task.
A simple alias holds simple key property values. The name of the alias can be used in the configuration of the properties of a routing policy or an email destination for the Log Invocation, Monitor Service Level Agreement, Monitor Service Performance, and Throttling Traffic Optimization policies.
To create a simple alias
1. Expand the menu options icon 
, in the title bar, and select Aliases. 2. Click Create alias.
3. In the Basic information section, provide the following information:
Field | Description |
Name | Name of the alias. |
Type | Select Simple alias. |
Description | Description of the alias. |
4. Click Technical information and specify a value in the Default value field.
Note: You can specify multiple email addresses, if you are creating an email alias, for example, abc@gmail.com, test@gmail.com, and so on.
5. Click Save.
Note: If you want to configure this alias in the routing policies, you can follow the syntax ${aliasname}. For example, if you want to route it to an endpoint http/mydevenv.com:7000/api, you can create a simple alias with the name mystage and its value being http/mydevenv.com:7000. The endpoint URL can be specified in the properties as ${mystage}/api.
