Track APIs from planning through retirement
IBM API Connect is built to help you manage your APIs through every state of their lifecycle—from grouping APIs into Products, staging versions into environments, publishing and controlling access for application developers, introducing new versions and deprecating old, and eventual retiring and archiving.
Staging
IBM API Connect allows you to stage a draft Product to a Catalog to create a specific version of that Product, so that the appropriate approvals, internally within the organization, can be given for it before it is published. In the staged state, the Product is not yet visible to developers.
Publishing
IBM API Developer Portal indicates when a Product is published and is available for use by application developers. A Product can be published to selected communities of application developer organizations, and the Plans within the Product can be used to tailor access and visibility further.
Deprecating and superseding
You can deprecate or supersede a published Product in API Manager by using the Manage Products page within a Catalog. When you deprecate a Product, application developers who are already subscribed to the Product can continue to use it, but no new developers can subscribe to the product.
Retiring
You can retire a published or deprecated Product by using the Manage Products page within a Catalog in API Manager. When a Product is retired, all associated APIs are taken offline, and any subscriptions are deleted.
