Changing the Default Connection Configuration for API Portal
You need to provide specific information in Designer for initiating a connection to API Portal. Designer saves this information in a connection configuration. You can add, edit, and update connection configurations in Designer.
Before you configure a connection to API Portal, ensure that the following criteria are met:
*API Portal is already configured and information about the host address and the port on which API Portal is running are available.
*A valid user account is created on API Portal.
*The tenants for which the REST API descriptors are to be published are already created on API Portal. Every tenant must have a unique connection configuration.
Note:
For information about publishing REST API descriptors to API Portal after configuring the required connection, see Publishing REST API Descriptors to API Portal.
