Parameter | Description |
Default Route To. Specifies the URLs of two or more native services in a pool to which the requests are routed. | |
Endpoint URI | Specifies the URI of the native API endpoint to route the request to in case all routing rules evaluate to False. |
HTTP Method | This is applicable to REST-based APIs. Specifies the available routing methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and CUSTOM (default). When CUSTOM is selected, the HTTP method in the incoming request is sent to the native service. When other methods are selected, the selected method is used in the request sent to the native service. Note: Software AG recommends to use Request Transformation > Method Transformation to achieve this as other transformations can also be done under the same policy. |
SOAP Optimization Method | This is applicable for SOAP-based APIs. Specifies the optimization methods that API Gateway can use to parse SOAP requests to the native API. Select one of the following options: MTOM. API Gateway uses the Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism (MTOM) to parse SOAP requests to the API. SwA. API Gateway uses the SOAP with Attachment (SwA) technique to parse SOAP requests to the API. None. API Gateway does not use any optimization method to parse the SOAP requests to the API. This is selected by default. |
HTTP Connection Timeout (seconds) | Specifies the time interval (in seconds) after which a connection attempt times out. If a value 0 is specified (or if the value is not specified), API Gateway uses the default value 30 seconds. |
Read Timeout (seconds) | Specifies the time interval (in seconds) after which a socket read attempt times out. If a value 0 is specified (or if the value is not specified), API Gateway uses the default value 30 seconds. |
Pass WS-Security Headers | This is applicable for SOAP-based APIs. Selecting this indicates that API Gateway should pass the WS-Security headers of the incoming requests to the native API. |
SSL Configuration. Specifies values to enable SSL client authentication that API Gateway uses to authenticate incoming requests for the native API. | |
Keystore Alias | Specifies the keystore alias of the instance of Integration Server on which API Gateway is running. This value (along with the value of Client Certificate Alias) is used for performing SSL client authentication. |
Key Alias | Specifies the alias for the private key, which must be stored in the keystore specified by the keystore alias. |
Rule. Defines the routing decisions based on one of the following routing options. | |
Route Using | Defines the dynamic URL based on the HTTP header value sent by the client or the context variable value. Select one of the following: Header: Select and specify the Name required. This header name is configured by the API provider and is used to decide the routing decisions at the API level. The request message must be routed to the dynamic URL generated from the HTTP header value. Context: The API providers must provide IS service in the policy, Invoke webMethods Integration Server. IS service would perform custom manipulations and set the value for the Context Variable ROUTING_ENDPOINT. API Gateway takes this ROUTING_ENDPOINT value as the native endpoint value and performs the routing. |
Route To | Specifies the endpoint URI of native services in a pool to which the requests are routed. Provide the following information: Endpoint URI . Specifies the URI of the native API endpoint to route the request to HTTP Method. This applicable to REST-based APIs. Specifies the available routing methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and CUSTOM (default). When CUSTOM is selected, the HTTP method in the incoming request is sent to the native service. When other methods are selected, the selected method is used in the request sent to the native service. HTTP Connection Timeout (seconds). Specifies the time interval (in seconds) after which a connection attempt times out. Read Timeout (seconds). Specifies the time interval (in seconds) after which a socket read attempt times out. SSL Configuration. Specifies values to enable SSL client authentication that API Gateway uses to authenticate incoming requests for the native API. Provide the following information: Keystore Alias. Specifies the keystore alias of the instance of Integration Server on which API Gateway is running. This value (along with the value of Client Certificate Alias) is used for performing SSL client authentication Key Alias. Specifies the alias for the private key, which must be stored in the keystore specified by the keystore alias. |
SOAP Optimization Method | This is applicable for SOAP-based APIs. Specifies the optimization methods that API Gateway can use to parse SOAP requests to the native API. Select one of the following options: MTOM. API Gateway uses the Message Transmission Optimization Mechanism (MTOM) to parse SOAP requests to the API. SwA. API Gateway uses the SOAP with Attachment (SwA) technique to parse SOAP requests to the API. None. API Gateway does not use any optimization method to parse the SOAP requests to the API. This is selected by default. |
Pass WS-Security Headers | This is applicable for SOAP-based APIs. Selecting this indicates that API Gateway should pass the WS-Security headers of the incoming requests to the native API. |
