Use Case A: Publish an API From the Native API Details Page
In this use case, you use the details page of a native API for publishing to the Mediator and API-Portal gateways.
Publish an API Without a Virtualized API
Here, you publish an instance of native API (which does not currently have a virtualized instance) from its details page.
The following table summarizes how an instance of native service A (without a virtualized service A1) is applicable for publishing to both gateways in a single step.
In this use case, there is one principal scenario:
Scenario | Instance of API | Publish to... |
Mediator | API-Portal |
Native Service A without Virtualized Service A1 | Native Service | | |
Publish an API With a Virtualized API
Here, you publish an instance of virtualized API (derived from the virtualization action of native API) from the details page of native API.
The following table summarizes how an instance of native service A (with a virtualized service A1) is applicable for publishing to both gateways in a single step.
In this use case, there is one principal scenario:
Scenario | Instances of API | Publish to... |
Mediator | API-Portal |
Native Service A with Virtualized Service A1 | Native Service A | | |
Virtualized Service A1 | | * |
* Only if publishing of an API to at least one Mediator gateway has executed successfully.
