Features and Enhancements

CI/CD - Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment

  • The APIIDA API Gateway Manager now supports RESTful APIs to manage the Gateway Manager and the connected gateways.

    • A new /migrate endpoint allows a safe way to migrate (one or more) resources (like Services) to any connected target, including a list of targets. All necessary steps, like changing variables, intelligent mapping and creating the folder structure will be done automatically.

    • Additional endpoints help to administer the Gateway Manager, like create/remove existing nodes.

  • Define Migration Pipelines, including pre- and post-steps for every migration, like sending a webhook to an already existing test-tool. With this, a fully automated flow for a CI/CD pipeline can be established.

  • A new Command Line Interface (CLI) to manage the Gateway Manager and performing migrations, can be used for existing CI/CD tools, like Jenkins.

More information about the new API interface is documented here: API documentation
