  • Istio Services in API product configuration

    Apigee refactored the API product configuration page in the New Edge experience UI. A new Istio Services option lets you bind the API product to one or more Istio Services created using the Apigee Adapter for Istio. See the Manage API products topic for the step describing the Istio Services option.

  • General Availability (GA) release of Monetization in the New Edge experience UI

  • Limits updates

    We updated the Limits topic, which includes limit increases on key value maps, caches, and target servers.

    In the Apigee Community, the Apigee Support team had published The Book of Apigee Edge Antipatterns in PDF format. We've converted that content to HTML, and it is now available on this Apigee doc site at https://docs.apigee.com/api-platform/antipatterns.

  • Virtual host alias wild card

    When defining a virtual host alias, you can use a single asterisk wild card at the beginning of the alias; for example, *.example.com. This technique lets API proxies handle calls addressed to multiple subdomains such as alpha.example.com, beta.example.com, or live.example.com. Using a wild card alias also helps you use fewer virtual hosts per environment to stay within product limits, since a virtual host with a wild card counts as only one virtual host.

  • Beta release of Apigee Edge module for Drupal 8

    The Beta release of the Apigee Edge module for Drupal 8 is now available. Drupal 8 provides a reliable open-source, enterprise-level content management system (CMS). Using the Drupal 8 portal development tools, you can build a fully customizable developer portal. Because Drupal 8 is open-source, you can extend and contribute to the Drupal 8 portal development framework and leverage the knowledge of the Drupal community. For more information, see Build your portal using Drupal 8.

  • General availability (GA) of Apigee Edge Client Library for PHP

    The GA release of the Apigee Edge Client Library for PHP for use with Drupal 8 is now available. The SDK makes it easy to write PHP modules that use the Apigee APIs. For more information, see Build a custom portal using Apigee Edge management APIs.

    • CPS caching minimum time

      We added the following note about Core Persistence Services (CPS) caching to relevant places in the documentation:

      OAuth access tokens and Key Management Service (KMS) entities (Apps, Developers, API Products) are cached for 180 seconds (current default) in organizations with Core Persistence Services enabled. Any custom attributes associated with entities also get cached for at least 180 seconds after entity is accessed during runtime. This also means the ExpiresIn element on the OAuthV2 policy won't be able to expire an access token in less than 180 seconds.

    • Management API authentication

      You can authenticate with the Apigee management API in multiple ways, and we've consolidated and clarified that content. See Access the management API.

      We published documentation for the general availability release of self-service TLS and virtual hosts.

    • Removed parallel deployment of API proxy revisions content

      In the Deploying proxies in the UI topic, we removed the section, "Deploying multiple versions of an API proxy to the same environment," as deploying multiple revisions of an API proxy in parallel by changing the base path is not a best practice.

    • Management API: List API Products count and startKey

      The List API Products management API topic now includes pagination query parameters for count and startKey. These query parameters are available only in organizations that have Core Persistence Services (CPS) enabled.

    • Concurrent Rate Limit policy and DefaultFaultRule

      In the Concurrent Rate Limit policy topic, we note that the policy is also required in the DefaultFaultRule to ensure that the rate limit counters are maintained correctly in the event of an error.
