Hi Experts,

  I am finding strange issue with validate policy that validates the incoming request payload against a predefined schema definition.

  I am on currently APIC 10.0.5.2-ifix1.

  Validate policy works fine, but when I make a change to any of the property in the schema definition, lets say I changed  the maxlength value of firstName from 50 to 100 and publish it to catalog, it doesnt reflect the change. it still considers maxlength as 50

It works(allows max length as 100) only when I create a new verison of api and package that new version api in a product.

I am not sure why is this behavior? Is there any caching happening? and I believe when I publish, it should automatically clear up everything and overwrite with the new one, right?

Can someone really help and share your valuable and expert suggestions, thoughts? We have so many apis for which we have to update schema definitions and we dont want to create new version of each api  for every small change in the schema definition.

Looking forward to your response. Thanks!

Regards

Ram

I actually found the issue.

When I stage the product from drafts and Publish the staged product from API Manager UI, the changes in schema definition are not taking in to effect.

But when I publish a product through APIC CLI or just directly Publish Products from Drafts, it works just fine.
