Disconnecting the Portal

Anypoint Platform can connect to only one Salesforce organization, and you can create only one API portal for that organization. To create a new API portal, you must disconnect the current API portal from your Salesforce organization. This process unlinks Anypoint Platform from your Salesforce organization. You can then link your Anypoint Platform account to a new Salesforce organization.

If you reconnect the portal (for example, after creating a new connection), you must reconfigure SSO, republish all APIs to the portal, and reconfigure group mapping. There is no process to restore the previous configuration automatically. Note that styling metadata is retained when reconnecting to the same Salesforce organization.

There is no supported way to change the user who created the connection in API Experience Hub. To assign the connection to a different user, you must disconnect and create a new connection. For more information, see Assigning Permissions.

Before You Disconnect

Disconnecting your API portal removes artifacts from the API Experience Hub database and unlinks Anypoint Platform from your Salesforce organization.

These artifacts are permanently removed from API Experience Hub:

  • All published assets and their visibility settings

  • All custom user groups

  • All group mapping configurations (for both custom and default user groups)

  • The Single Sign-On (SSO) configuration

Before you disconnect, record the following information so you can restore your portal configuration after reconnecting:

  1. Record your published APIs and visibility settings.

    1. From the API management page, select the APIs in the portal tab.

    2. Record a list of all APIs in the portal.

      You must republish these APIs under the new connection.

    3. For each API, record its visibility settings (including instance and user visibility per version) so you can restore them after reconnecting. For more information, see managing-apis.adoc#make-api-versions-visible.

  2. Record your user groups information.

    1. From the User groups page, record all user groups and their details (for example, group names and members).

      For more information, see Manage User Groups.

    2. For each group, record the corresponding identity provider name.

      You need this information when you re-enable SSO and reconfigure group mapping. For more information, see managing-users.adoc#map-user-groups-to-external-identity-providers and Configuring SSO.
