This tutorial demonstrates how to integrate an external WSO2 API Manager (APIM) 2.0.0 with WSO2 G-Reg 5.3.0

...

WSO2 G-Reg implements Services (SOAP or REST) as configurable governance artifacts (RXT files)which you create using the G-Reg Publisher. Usually, you publish a service in WSO2 APIM using the APIM Publisher web interface. Instead, you can integrate WSO2 APIM with WSO2 G-Reg, to directly publish APIs to APIM Publisher using the services deployed in the WSO2 G-Reg. This guide explains how to configure the two products to expose services in the G-Reg as APIs in WSO2 APIM.

Prerequisites

Follow the steps below to set up the required prerequisites before starting the integration.

...

  1. Create the service, which you need to publish to WSO2 APIM in WSO2 G-Reg or edit it if it is an existing one. 

    Tip

    When creating the service or editing an existing service, add the same values that you provided for the apim.endpoint parameter (e.g. http://localhost:9763/), and apim.env parameter (e.g. "dev") in the lifecycle executor in Integrating with an External WSO2 API Manager, for Environments and URL in the Endpoints tab as shown in the example below.  

    define the endpoint

  2. Publish the  service you created or edited to WSO2 APIM Publisher. For instructions, see Managing Life Cycles of Assets.
