Deploying API Proxies to Runtime Fabric

Runtime Fabric enables you to deploy API proxies to a Mule runtime.

Before you Begin

To deploy API proxies to a Mule runtime, you must have the following permissions on your account:

  • Manage APIs Configuration permission

  • Deploy API Proxies permission

You must ensure that you are using API Gateway version 3.8.7, 3.9.1, or 4.1.2.

If you are deploying your API to a Mule 4 environment and want to enable the proxy to support HTTPS requests, first refer to build HTTPS API proxies.

By default, the resources allocated to the proxy app are:

  • CPU: 0.2 vCores

  • Memory: 1.024 GB

You can update resource allocation settings on the application’s Settings page in Runtime Manager.

Deploy an API Proxy

  1. From Anypoint Platform, select API Manager > Manage API > Manage API From Exchange.

  2. In API Name, search for the name of the asset saved in Exchange.

    The Asset type, API version, and Asset version fields for the API are auto-populated from Exchange.

  3. For Managing type, select Endpoint with proxy.

  4. For Proxy deployment target, select Runtime Fabric.

  5. Select the Mule version.

  6. For Implementation URI, specify the base URL path to access the proxy.

  7. Optionally, specify a Path.

  8. Click Advanced options and optionally specify advanced parameters, such as TLS context for outbound traffic (for HTTPS), Proxy version, Validations, Response timeout, and Port.

  9. Click Save.

    Your configuration information is saved and API Manager displays the Deployment Configuration section.

  10. In the Deployment Configuration section, configure the following:

    • Select the Runtime Fabric target.

    • Select the Runtime version.

    • Enter the name of the proxy application.

API Manager deploys the API proxy to Runtime Fabric. While deploying, a deployment status dialog appears that indicates:

  1. Deploying proxy.

  2. Starting application.

  3. Deploy successful.

After deployment, you can manage the deployed API proxy from Runtime Manager.

Enable an HTTPS Proxy

To enable the proxy to support HTTPs requests:

  1. Download the API gateway and deploy from API Manager using the instructions in Downloading an API Proxy.

  2. Open the gateway in Anypoint Studio and insert a keystore (SSL cert) using the instructions in Use Anypoint Studio to Configure TLS.

  3. Export and deploy the gateway using Runtime Manager according to the instructions in Deploy a Mule Application to Runtime Fabric.

  4. Enable last-mile security on the application using the instructions in How to enable last-mile security in Runtime Fabric (RTF).
