Core Workflows

1. Create API Center Service

using Azure.ResourceManager.ApiCenter;
using Azure.ResourceManager.ApiCenter.Models;

ResourceGroupResource resourceGroup = await client
    .GetDefaultSubscriptionAsync()
    .Result
    .GetResourceGroupAsync("my-resource-group");

ApiCenterServiceCollection services = resourceGroup.GetApiCenterServices();

ApiCenterServiceData data = new ApiCenterServiceData(AzureLocation.EastUS)
{
    Identity = new ManagedServiceIdentity(ManagedServiceIdentityType.SystemAssigned)
};

ArmOperation<ApiCenterServiceResource> operation = await services
    .CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, "my-api-center", data);

ApiCenterServiceResource service = operation.Value;

2. Create Workspace

ApiCenterWorkspaceCollection workspaces = service.GetApiCenterWorkspaces();

ApiCenterWorkspaceData workspaceData = new ApiCenterWorkspaceData
{
    Title = "Engineering APIs",
    Description = "APIs owned by the engineering team"
};

ArmOperation<ApiCenterWorkspaceResource> operation = await workspaces
    .CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, "engineering", workspaceData);

ApiCenterWorkspaceResource workspace = operation.Value;

3. Create API

ApiCenterApiCollection apis = workspace.GetApiCenterApis();

ApiCenterApiData apiData = new ApiCenterApiData
{
    Title = "Orders API",
    Description = "API for managing customer orders",
    Kind = ApiKind.Rest,
    LifecycleStage = ApiLifecycleStage.Production,
    TermsOfService = new ApiTermsOfService
    {
        Uri = new Uri("https://example.com/​terms")
    },
    ExternalDocumentation = 
    {
        new ApiExternalDocumentation
        {
            Title = "Documentation",
            Uri = new Uri("https://docs.example.com/​orders")
        }
    },
    Contacts =
    {
        new ApiContact
        {
            Name = "API Support",
            Email = "[email protected]"
        }
    }
};

// Add custom metadata
apiData.CustomProperties = BinaryData.FromObjectAsJson(new
{
    team = "orders-team",
    costCenter = "CC-1234"
});

ArmOperation<ApiCenterApiResource> operation = await apis
    .CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, "orders-api", apiData);

ApiCenterApiResource api = operation.Value;

4. Create API Version

ApiCenterApiVersionCollection versions = api.GetApiCenterApiVersions();

ApiCenterApiVersionData versionData = new ApiCenterApiVersionData
{
    Title = "v1.0.0",
    LifecycleStage = ApiLifecycleStage.Production
};

ArmOperation<ApiCenterApiVersionResource> operation = await versions
    .CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, "v1-0-0", versionData);

ApiCenterApiVersionResource version = operation.Value;

5. Create API Definition (Upload OpenAPI Spec)

ApiCenterApiDefinitionCollection definitions = version.GetApiCenterApiDefinitions();

ApiCenterApiDefinitionData definitionData = new ApiCenterApiDefinitionData
{
    Title = "OpenAPI Specification",
    Description = "Orders API OpenAPI 3.0 definition"
};

ArmOperation<ApiCenterApiDefinitionResource> operation = await definitions
    .CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, "openapi", definitionData);

ApiCenterApiDefinitionResource definition = operation.Value;

// Import specification
string openApiSpec = await File.ReadAllTextAsync("orders-api.yaml");

ApiSpecImportContent importContent = new ApiSpecImportContent
{
    Format = ApiSpecImportSourceFormat.Inline,
    Value = openApiSpec,
    Specification = new ApiSpecImportSpecification
    {
        Name = "openapi",
        Version = "3.0.1"
    }
};

await definition.ImportSpecificationAsync(WaitUntil.Comp
