Lesson 2
Building in Azure API Management
In this lesson we'll look at the benefits of building using Azure API management with your APIs. We'll then see how to build out APIs in API management using the portal and PowerShell.
Lesson 3
Monitoring and Security
Here we'll see how to collect and view logs of our API. We'll then use metrics to gauge our API. Finally we'll secure our API with subscriptions and certificates.
Lesson 4
Manage APIs with Policies
Here we'll use policies in API management to modify headers and response content from the backend to further secure our APIs. We'll also use policies to throttle API responses.
Lesson 5 • Project
My Weather API
Your project will provide API management. This includes providing API access, securing the API through subscription keys, implementing policies, and removing headers from API responses.
