Adding Virtual OData Service using an Existing Native OData Service
You can create a virtual OData service asset from an existing native OData service asset. However, if you want to configure the run-time policies for the newly created virtual service asset using CentraSite, the RuntimeComponentSetting in the centrasite.xml file must be enabled. For information on enabling run-time aspects from CentraSite, see Enabling CentraSite Run-Time Aspects.
When the run-time aspects configured from CentraSite is enabled, then the creation of a virtual OData service asset from a native OData service asset would involve the following three steps. Else, only the first of the following three can be performed from CentraSite. In such scenario, the run-time policies can be configured from gateways to which the APIs are published.
1. Creating a virtual copy (proxy) of the existing Native OData Service asset. For procedures, see Create Virtual OData Service.
2. Configuring the run-time policy actions for the Virtual OData Service asset. For procedures, see Assign Policy Actions for Virtual OData Service.
3. Implementing the virtualization of the existing Native OData Service asset, and publishing the Virtual OData Service asset to one or more gateways. For procedures, see Virtualize and Publish Virtual OData Service to Gateways.
