Unregistering an API-Portal Gateway from CentraSite
Unregistering an API-Portal causes CentraSite to suppress interactions with the API-Portal. You usually unregister an API-Portal as a fallback option for the following reasons:
The
API-Portal server is irreversibly down, for example, the machine hosting the
API-Portal has crashed, or is inaccessible.
An internal or application error on the
CentraSite or
API-Portal server.
To edit an
API-Portal (for example, to modify the hostname of an
API-Portal).
To suspend publishing of APIs and handling requests (new, renew, revoke) of access tokens for the
API-Portal registry (temporarily or permanent).
You can unregister an API-Portal gateway from CentraSite by using the Unpublish action. If you do not see the Unpublish icon in the API-Portal details page, it is probably because you not have the required role to unregister an API-Portal gateway.
To unregister an API-Portal, you must have the CentraSite Administrator or API-Portal Administrator role. If your user account belongs to API-Portal Administrator organization-level role, you automatically have permission to unregister all of the API-Portals in that organization. If your user account belongs to the CentraSite Administrator role, you have permission to unregister any API-Portal in the CentraSite registry.
