What is the IICS API Center used for?
Answer: Publishing, managing, securing, and monitoring APIs built on IICS Application Integration processes
API Center in IICS allows teams to publish Application Integration processes as managed APIs with governance, security, and analytics.
In IICS API Center, what is an 'API Collection'?
Answer: A set of related APIs grouped together for joint publication, versioning, and access control
An API Collection groups related APIs for shared lifecycle management, including publication, versioning, and applying security policies.
Which security policy can be applied to an API in IICS API Center to require callers to supply a valid key?
Answer: API Key policy
Applying an API Key policy requires API consumers to include a valid API key in their request headers, controlling access to the API.
What is 'rate limiting' in IICS API Center?
Answer: Controlling the number of API requests a consumer can make in a given time period
Rate limiting restricts how many API calls a consumer or application can make within a specified time window, preventing abuse and ensuring fair usage.
In IICS, how is an Application Integration process exposed as a public API endpoint?
Answer: By binding the process to a REST endpoint and publishing it through API Center
A process is given a REST binding in Application Integration, then published and governed through API Center to expose it as a managed API.
What does 'API versioning' in IICS API Center allow teams to do?
Answer: Maintain multiple versions of an API simultaneously, allowing consumers to migrate at their own pace
API versioning lets teams publish a new version of an API while keeping the old version running, giving consumers time to migrate without breaking changes.
