Viewing or Changing an API-Portal
You use the API-Portal Configuration page to examine and/or edit the properties for an API-Portal. To edit an API-Portal, you must have a user account with the CentraSite Administrator or API-Portal Administrator role. If your user account belongs to the API-Portal Administrator role for an organization, you automatically have permission to modify all of the API-Portals in that organization. If your user account belongs to the CentraSite Administrator role, you have permission to modify any API-Portal.
To view or edit the properties of an API-Portal
1. In CentraSite Business UI, click Manage Governance Rules to display the API-Portal list. For procedures, see Viewing the API-Portal List.
2. Locate the API-Portal whose details you want to view or edit, and click its hyperlinked name.
