Building a fully automated CI/CD process for API development with WSO2 API Manager

I wrote a medium post on how to build a fully automated CI/CD process to develop APIs with WSO2 API Manager. The original post can be found in the below link. In this post I'm discussing about how to utilize WSO2 API Manager product level APIs to implement the continous integration (CI) and continous deployment (CD) aspects within your enterprise ecosystem and how that can be fully automated with tools like GitHub and TraviCI.

How to protect your APIs with self contained access token (JWT) using WSO2 API Manager and WSO2 Identity Server

In a typical enterprise information system, there is a high chance that people will use different types of systems built by different vendors to implement certain types of functionalities. The APIs might be hosted in an API Manager developed by vendor A and the user management can be implemented using a different vendor (vendor B). In this type of a situation, one system will not be able to directly contact the other system but they want to use both systems in tandem. Self-contained access tokens are used in these types of situations where applications can get the token from one system and use that in another system to access protected resources. In this scenario, the second system does not need to make a contact to the first system over the network to validate the user information since the token is self-contained and it has relevant details about the user. This will improve the token processing time significantly since it completely removes the network interaction. The below fig...

WSO2 ESB creating a response for a "GET" request

When you are creating REST APIs with WSO2 ESB, you may need to send some response message back to the user when something goes wrong. In this kind of scenario, you can create a payload inside the ESB and send it back. For doing this, you can use the below configuration. <api xmlns=" http://ws.apache.org/ ns/synapse " name="LoopBackProxy" context="/loopback">    <resource methods="POST GET">       <inSequence>          <property name="NO_ENTITY_BODY" scope="axis2" action="remove"></property>          <log level="full"></log>          <payloadFactory media-type="xml">             <format>                <m:messageBeforeLoopBack xmlns:m=" http://services...

How to configure timeouts in WSO2 ESB to get rid of client timeout errors

WSO2 ESB has defined some configuration parameters which controls the timeout of a particular request which is going out of ESB. In a particular  scneario, your client sends a request to ESB, and then ESB sends a request to another endpoint to serve the request. CLIENT->WSO2 ESB->BACKEND The reason for clients getting timeout is that ESB timeout is larger than client's timeout. This can be solved by either increasing the timeout at client side or by decreasing the timeout in ESB side. In any of the case, you can control the timeout in ESB using the below properties. 1) Global timeout defined in synapse.properties (ESB_HOME\repository\conf\) file. This will decide the maximum time that a callback is waiting in the ESB for a response for a particular request. If ESB does not get any response from Back End, it will drop the message and clears out the call back. This is a global level parameter which affects all the endpoints configured in ESB. synapse.global_timeout_inte...
