Prerequisites

The following is required to proceed:

• A running instance of APIIDA´s Boomi´s API Control Plane

• Access to the Amazon API Gateway Service with at least one API deployed in a stage

• Docker to use the image of our agent (that acts as an intermediary)

Create a new Environment

To get started, simply open your API Control Plane instance and follow the instructions below.

Add an Environment for Gravitee

• Navigate to “Environments” in the menu on the left side

• Click on the “Create New Environment” button in the top right corner

• Fill in the form (as exemplarily shown below)

...

• Confirm by clicking on the "Create New Environment" button

Provide the Gateway Information

...

• url: Insert the URL to your Gravitee Management API

  • This is not the URL of your Gravitee Management UI!

  • To test if this is the correct Url, try calling <Url>/management/organizations/DEFAULT/console and check that you get a valid response and no errors.

• user/password: Credentials of a user of your Gravitee instance with access rights to the Management API

...

• • Look at Gravitee User Management to learn how to manage users in Gravitee.

• Your configuration file will download automatically.

• Confirm by clicking on the "Download and Next" button

You’ve completed the second step!

Create an Agent as Intermediary

The following describes how to create a Docker container for the agent. It is described using a Docker compose file so that additional agents can be easily added to your docker stack later.

...

• image: The docker image of the API Control Plane Agent

• container_name: You can freely choose the name of your Agent here as well as in line 3.

• environment

  • backendUrl: The agent will establish a web-socket to this URL and thereby connect to your API Control Plane.

  • gateway-config: The path inside the container to the configuration you downloaded in step 2.

• volumes

  • The outer path of the configuration file : The inner path of the configuration file

• Click on “Download” to download your agent docker compose

• Put both files in the same folder. Then run the following commands.

  • Code Block
    docker pull ghcr.io/apiida/obsidian-agent:latest

    • Download the latest image of the agent.

  • Code Block
    docker compose up

    • Starts the agent. It will connect automatically.

You’ve completed the third step!

Check the Agent's Status

• Head over to your API Control Plane instance

• Select “Environments” in the menu on the left side

  • Your AWS Agent should now be connected to API Control Plane

• Click on the tile or the entry in the table to get more detailed information about the status of the connection. This can be very useful in case of an error.

You’ve completed the last step!

You can now interact with your AWS Gateway through APIIDA´s API Control Plane.

Try it right now and discover your APIs!

💡 Tip: It is easy to add more agents!

Repeat this guide or that of another gateway and simply add the agents to the existing Docker compose file.
