Parameter Levels
A parameter can be set at different levels of an API. When you model an API in CentraSite, you define the parameters at the API level or Resource level or Method level to address the following scenarios:
If you have the parameter applicable to all resources in the API, then you define this parameter at the API level. This indirectly implies that the parameter is propagated to all resources and methods under the particular API.
If you have the parameter applicable to all methods in the API, then you define this parameter at the Resource level. This indirectly implies that the parameter is propagated to all methods under the particular resource.
If you have the parameter applicable only to a method in the API, then you define this parameter at the particular Method level.
