CentraSite Documentation : Runtime Governance with CentraSite : Virtualized APIs in CentraSite Business UI : Introduction to Virtualized APIs
Introduction to Virtualized APIs
API Providers (Asset Providers) and API Consumers (Asset Consumers) use the CentraSite Business UI to browse and search for virtualized APIs in the asset catalog by name, description, attribute values, asset types and/or taxonomy groups. Additionally, the API Providers can virtualize and publish APIs to the run-time layer; while the API consumers can invoke (call) the virtualized APIs that are exposed to them.
This topic describes how to:
*Create and configure virtualized APIs in the CentraSite catalog.
*Publish virtualized APIs to the webMethods Mediator and webMethods API-Portal gateways.
*Consume APIs using the API key or Oauth2 client access token.
Instructions throughout the remainder of this document use the term "API" when referring to the instances of the three base types (Service, XML Service, and REST Service), and "Virtualized API" when referring to the instances of the three virtual types (Virtual Service, Virtual XML Service, and Virtual REST Service) in general.
