Subject: How to read input variable in policy
Hi Abdelazim,
There are numerous sample custom policies at https://github.com/ibm-apiconnect/policy-apigw/tree/master/user-defined-policies that you can use as examples. I believe you will access your UDP property using the variable local.parameter.code. When your UDP is executed, all of the values for that instance of the policy will be in local.parameter.<property name>.
Best Regards,
Steve

Hi,
You can use a MAP policy to read an input into a custom policy: https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/api-connect/10.0.8_lts?topic=policies-map

I created a custom policy and declared one input for this policy as a string, and I need to read this input to perform further operations on it.
What is the correct syntax to read it?
