Manage API resources

Console

To list API resources:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the APIs page in API hub.

   Go to API hub

   A list of all APIs added to API hub are listed on the APIs home page.

2. Use Filter to specify keywords to filter the list of APIs. If needed, use Search to locate an API.

REST

To list all API resources in your API hub project, use the List APIs API:

curl "https://apihub.googleapis.com/v1/projects/HUB_PROJECT/locations/HUB_LOCATION/apis" -X GET -H "Authorization: Bearer: $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" -H "Content-Type: application/json" 

Replace the following:

• HUB_PROJECT: The name of your API hub host project. The host project was selected when API hub was provisioned.
• HUB_LOCATION: The location of the host project. The location was chosen when API hub was provisioned.

Sample output:

{ "apis": [ { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/a035eb3b-658e-467a-89d3-9cca2bbacd32-2", "displayName": "TestApi2", "documentation": {} }, { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/a035eb3b-658e-467a-89d3-9cca2bbacd32-1", "displayName": "TestApi1", "documentation": {} }, { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/foo9013cfev", "displayName": "sample", "documentation": {} }, { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/foo90121", "displayName": "sample", "documentation": {} }, ... ], "nextPageToken": "f4f4d78b-a974-46db-a214-dc139f8e9c8a" }

REST example with filter

You can filter list results using the API. In this example, we filter APIs based on an system defined attribute:

curl -X GET -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \ 'https://apihub.googleapis.com/v1/projects/HUB_PROJECT/locations/HUB_LOCATION/apis' \ -d filter="owner.email=\"testowner3@gmail.com\"" -d page_size=10 

Replace the following:

• HUB_PROJECT: The name of your API hub host project. The host project was selected when API hub was provisioned.
• HUB_LOCATION: The location of the host project. The location was chosen when API hub was provisioned.

Sample output, filtered by owner:

{ "apis": [ { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/theme-park-management-api", "displayName": "Theme Park Management API", "documentation": {} }, { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/restaurant-api", "displayName": "Restaurant API", "documentation": {} }, { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/casino-management-api", "displayName": "Casino Management API", "documentation": {} }, { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/hotel-boooking-api", "displayName": "Hotel Booking API", "documentation": {} }, { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/test-march-26-api3", "displayName": "Test Pets API", "documentation": {} }, { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/test-march-26-api2", "displayName": "Test Pets API", "documentation": {} }, { "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/test-march-26-api1", "displayName": "Test Pets API", "documentation": {} } ] }

Console

To view details of an API resource:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the APIs page in API hub.

   Go to API hub
2. Use Filter to specify keywords to filter the list of APIs. If needed, use Search to locate an API.
3. Click an API to view its overview page.

REST

To view details of an API resource, use the Get API resource details API:

curl "https://apihub.googleapis.com/v1/projects/HUB_PROJECT/locations/HUB_LOCATION/apis/API_ID" -H "Authorization: Bearer: $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" 

Replace the following:

• HUB_PROJECT: The name of your API hub host project. The host project was selected when API hub was provisioned.
• HUB_LOCATION: The location of the host project. The location was chosen when API hub was provisioned.
• API_ID: The unique ID of the API resource.

Sample output:

{ "name": "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/myapi", "displayName": "My Test API", "description": "This is a test API.", "documentation": {}, "owner": { "displayName": "Test API, "email": "testowner@gmail.com" }, "versions": [ "projects/myproject/locations/us-central1/apis/myapi/versions/myapi-version1" ], "createTime": "2024-03-26T10:13:15.668867002Z", "updateTime": "2024-03-26T10:13:16.700716401Z" }

Console

When you delete an API in the UI, then all of the underlying versions of the API and associated API specifications (if any) are deleted.

To delete an API resource:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the APIs page in API hub.

   Go to API hub
2. Use Filter to specify keywords to filter the list of APIs. If needed, use Search to locate an API to delete.
3. From the Actions menu (the right side of the row containing the API), click Delete.

REST

To delete an API from API hub, use the Delete API API.

By default, an API can only be deleted if all underlying versions are deleted. If you want to delete all versions under an API in one step, set the force query parameter to true in the Delete REST API.

curl -X DELETE -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \ 'https://apihub.googleapis.com/v1/projects/HUB_PROJECT/locations/HUB_LOCATION/apis/API_ID'

Replace the following:

• HUB_PROJECT: The name of your API hub host project. The host project was selected when API hub was provisioned.
• HUB_LOCATION: The location of the host project. The location was chosen when API hub was provisioned.
• API_ID: The unique ID of the API resource to delete.

To delete the API and all underlying versions, set the force query parameter to true. For example:

curl -X DELETE -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" \ 'https://apihub.googleapis.com/v1/projects/HUB_PROJECT/locations/HUB_LOCATION/apis/API_ID?force=true'

Console

To edit an API:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the APIs page in API hub.

   Go to API hub
2. Use Filter to specify keywords to filter the list of APIs. If needed, use Search to locate an API to edit.
3. Click an API to view its details page.
4. Click Edit API.
5. On the Edit API page, make your changes. Click Continue to move to the next set of editable attributes.
   • General details: You can edit the display name of the API.
   • Owner information: The name and email address of the API owner.
   • Additional details: These are the system-defined attributes. You can specify custom default values for these attributes in Manage attributes.
   • User defined attributes: These are the custom, user-defined attributes. You can specify custom attributes in Manage attributes.
6. Click Save.

REST

To edit an API resource, use the Patch API resource API.

curl -X PATCH -H "Authorization: Bearer $(gcloud auth print-access-token)" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{ "display_name": "Updated Test Docs API", # Example request body with changes "description": "This is the updated test API.", "owner": { "display_name": "Updated Docs Owner", "email": "updateddocsowner@gmail.com" } } ' https://apihub.googleapis.com/v1/projects/HUB_PROJECT/locations/HUB_LOCATION/apis/API_ID

Replace the following:

• HUB_PROJECT: The name of your API hub host project. The host project was selected when API hub was provisioned.
• HUB_LOCATION: The location of the host project. The location was chosen when API hub was provisioned.
• API_ID: The unique ID of the API to update.
• Request Body: Use the request body to specify the attributes you wish to change. See the API request body description.
