February 5, 2024

What’s New

W-14550668

November 29, 2023

What’s New

  • Administrators can now give users, such as developers, view-only access to the API Governance console so that they can:

    • View conformance information for their governed APIs.

    • Download conformance reports in CSV format.

    Governance administrators continue to have full access to API Governance.

  • Ruleset enhancements:

    • You can now use the MuleSoft-provided API Catalog Information Best Practices ruleset to apply governance to API catalog information.

    • You can now embed examples of valid and invalid code in rulesets to help developers understand conformance issues. For example, for the validation operations-must-have-identifiers:

          examples:
      valid: |
        /events:
          get:
            displayName: get
            description: Gets a stream of results
      invalid: |
        /events:
          get: # missing displayName/identifier
            description: Gets a stream of results

    • You can now add parameters to ruleset messages. When an API fails the validation, parameter values are resolved with contextual information. This makes messages more specific and easier to take action on. For example:

      security-fields-operation-empty:
    message: |
      The security field of the operation {{core.name}} should not be empty.

See Anypoint API Governance 入門.

October 17, 2023

What’s New

  • A new Mule API Management Best Practices ruleset provided by MuleSoft is published in Exchange.

  • New functionality is available to enable you to start governing instances by API version:

    • Organizations created after this release are automatically opted in.

    • For governance administrators:

      • If you don’t see an opt-in banner on the API Governance console, your organizations are already opted in.

      • If you see an opt-in banner, you can opt in to apply the new functionality to your organizations.

    After you initiate the opt in, some profiles and APIs might show a status of In Validation until the update completes.

    With the new functionality you can:

    • View specification and instance conformance in a single summary in Anypoint API Governance.

    • View governance conformance information in API Manager.

    • View comprehensive governance reports in Anypoint API Governance and API Manager.

    • Govern an entire API by API version, so that you can apply governance to all instances of all versions of an API.

Limitations

  • Anypoint CLI governance commands support validating API specifications only.

  • After opting in to use the new features:

    • When creating or updating a profile, you can no longer filter by lifecycle state.

    • In API Manager, the conformance status and report are shown only for REST APIs.

See Anypoint API Governance の概要.

What’s New

  • You can now filter by API Instance information in your governance profiles. If you select the filter Include only APIs with instances, only specifications that have an instance in API Manager are included. You can then optionally filter by environment type and environment name. See Create a Governance Profile Using the Anypoint API Governance Console.

  • Rulesets now have a Governed APIs page where you can view the list of centrally-governed APIs to which the ruleset applies. See Viewing Conformance Status in Exchange.

  • The Anypoint API Governance experience API is now published. Access the experience API in Exchange in your preferred Anypoint Platform control plane:
