  • 1.  Reusable policies in API Connect

    Posted Mon May 15, 2023 10:09 AM
    Hi Team...
     
    We are developing multiple API's where the below set of activities is getting repeated. My query is, how can I group all these functionalities (implemented in individual policies like map, invoke, gatewayscript policy etc...) and create a single policy or whatever so that I can reuse this code in all the API assemblies effectively. Please advise how this can be achieved in API Connect
     
    1. Creating a backend request
    2. Hitting the backend
    3. Extracting the backend response and verifying certain fields
    4. Implementing encryption and decryption on the request and response

    it can be done through user defined policies. Please find github link below
