CentraSite User's Guide : Runtime Governance : Gateway Management : Managing Gateways through CentraSite Business UI : Viewing the Gateway List and Gateway Asset Details

Pre-requisites:

To view a list of available gateways for an organization, you must have one of the following roles:

CentraSite Administrator: instances of API Gateway, API Portal, Mediator, and Insight Server gateways in any organization in CentraSite.

Organization Administrator: instances of API Gateway, API Portal, Mediator, and Insight Server gateways in your organization.

API Gateway Administrator: instances of API Gateway in the specific organization to which your API Gateway Administrator role applies.

API Portal Administrator: instances of API Portal gateway in the specific organization to which your API Portal Administrator role applies.

Mediator Administrator: instances of Mediator and Insight Server gateways in the specific organization to which your Mediator Administrator role applies.

In addition to the above, you can also view the details of a gateway instance if you have the Full, Modify, or at least View instance-level permission on the gateway itself.

You view the list of gateway assets using the Governance Rules activity in CentraSite Business UI. In addition, you can view gateway details, modify gateway details, publish (register) and unpublish (unregister) gateways, view gateway asset dependencies, and monitor runtime performance metrics in the Gateway Details page.
