API Management

Microsoft Azure API Management is a turnkey solution for publishing APIs to external and internal consumers. Quickly create consistent and modern API gateways for existing backend services hosted anywhere, secure and protect them from abuse and overuse, and gain insights into usage and health. Plus, automate and scale developer onboarding to help get your API program up and running in no time.

  1. Expose API Management Events

    Expose events from API Management.

    Example would be, a user registers. Currently we get an email. It would be nice if it was an event we could subscribe to (WebHook or API Call or Service Bus message.. etc) so that we could use the user registration as the start of a workflow.
    Another example would be if a user requests a Product, having an event we could leverage things like PowerApp/Flow/Logic App to start an approval process or setup their development environment.

    Simple Event list that would have the most value:
    -User Created
    -User Requested Subscription
    -Issue Created

  2. API Management more control with mail sending

    Currently there are very few options to set, when it comes to mailing about API Management events (new subscriptions, new developers, etc.).
    It would be great, if following could be included for e-mail configuration (some of these things help avoid e-mail being recognized as spam by some spam filters, as in our case):
    - optionally removing "on behalf of" when sending e-mail
    - including text/plain representation in sent e-mails (besides default text/html)
    - using SendGrid as a e-mail sender (as in other Azure services)
    - using custom reply address (instead of "on behalf of")

    Any maybe some other things that…

  3. Add a "Subscription Required" checkbox during APIM API creation.

    Currently when creating an APIM service in Azure and adding a new API, there is no option to remove the "Subscription Required" parameter until after the API's creation. After creation this can be managed under the API's settings, however it would be very beneficial to be able to access this during creation.

  5. Extend billing API to consider fair use of reservations

    My company uses a mix of reserved instances and pay-as-you go instances. I want a convenient way to evaluate how much it cost in a given month to operate a virtual machine. This convenient way should fairly distribute reserved instance usage among eligible machines.

    Details:

    With pay-as-you-go instances, you can pull monthly data that shows how much an instance cost to operate this month. The costs are a direct function of the delivered value. With reserved instances, you pay in advance and you may (or may not) use the reservation over the course of the years. Value stream (usage) and…
