Azure API Center Management SDK for Python

Manage API inventory, metadata, and governance in Azure API Center.

Installation

bash
pip install azure-mgmt-apicenter
pip install azure-identity

Environment Variables

bash
AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=your-subscription-id

Authentication

python
from azure.identity import DefaultAzureCredential
from azure.mgmt.apicenter import ApiCenterMgmtClient
import os

client = ApiCenterMgmtClient(
    credential=DefaultAzureCredential(),
    subscription_id=os.environ["AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID"]
)

Create API Center

python
from azure.mgmt.apicenter.models import Service

api_center = client.services.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-api-center",
    resource=Service(
        location="eastus",
        tags={"environment": "production"}
    )
)

print(f"Created API Center: {api_center.name}")

List API Centers

python
api_centers = client.services.list_by_subscription()

for api_center in api_centers:
    print(f"{api_center.name} - {api_center.location}")

Register an API

python
from azure.mgmt.apicenter.models import Api, ApiKind, LifecycleStage

api = client.apis.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-api-center",
    workspace_name="default",
    api_name="my-api",
    resource=Api(
        title="My API",
        description="A sample API for demonstration",
        kind=ApiKind.REST,
        lifecycle_stage=LifecycleStage.PRODUCTION,
        terms_of_service={"url": "https://example.com/terms"},
        contacts=[{"name": "API Team", "email": "api-team@example.com"}]
    )
)

print(f"Registered API: {api.title}")

Create API Version

python
from azure.mgmt.apicenter.models import ApiVersion, LifecycleStage

version = client.api_versions.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-api-center",
    workspace_name="default",
    api_name="my-api",
    version_name="v1",
    resource=ApiVersion(
        title="Version 1.0",
        lifecycle_stage=LifecycleStage.PRODUCTION
    )
)

print(f"Created version: {version.title}")

Add API Definition

python
from azure.mgmt.apicenter.models import ApiDefinition

definition = client.api_definitions.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-api-center",
    workspace_name="default",
    api_name="my-api",
    version_name="v1",
    definition_name="openapi",
    resource=ApiDefinition(
        title="OpenAPI Definition",
        description="OpenAPI 3.0 specification"
    )
)

Import API Specification

python
from azure.mgmt.apicenter.models import ApiSpecImportRequest, ApiSpecImportSourceFormat

# Import from inline content
client.api_definitions.import_specification(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-api-center",
    workspace_name="default",
    api_name="my-api",
    version_name="v1",
    definition_name="openapi",
    body=ApiSpecImportRequest(
        format=ApiSpecImportSourceFormat.INLINE,
        value='{"openapi": "3.0.0", "info": {"title": "My API", "version": "1.0"}, "paths": {}}'
    )
)

List APIs

python
apis = client.apis.list(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-api-center",
    workspace_name="default"
)

for api in apis:
    print(f"{api.name}: {api.title} ({api.kind})")

Create Environment

python
from azure.mgmt.apicenter.models import Environment, EnvironmentKind

environment = client.environments.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-api-center",
    workspace_name="default",
    environment_name="production",
    resource=Environment(
        title="Production",
        description="Production environment",
        kind=EnvironmentKind.PRODUCTION,
        server={"type": "Azure API Management", "management_portal_uri": ["https://portal.azure.com"]}
    )
)

Create Deployment

python
from azure.mgmt.apicenter.models import Deployment, DeploymentState

deployment = client.deployments.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-api-center",
    workspace_name="default",
    api_name="my-api",
    deployment_name="prod-deployment",
    resource=Deployment(
        title="Production Deployment",
        description="Deployed to production APIM",
        environment_id="/workspaces/default/environments/production",
        definition_id="/workspaces/default/apis/my-api/versions/v1/definitions/openapi",
        state=DeploymentState.ACTIVE,
        server={"runtime_uri": ["https://api.example.com"]}
    )
)

Define Custom Metadata

python
from azure.mgmt.apicenter.models import MetadataSchema

metadata = client.metadata_schemas.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-api-center",
    metadata_schema_name="data-classification",
    resource=MetadataSchema(
        schema='{"type": "string", "title": "Data Classification", "enum": ["public", "internal", "confidential"]}'
    )
)

Client Types

Client Purpose
ApiCenterMgmtClient Main client for all operations

Operations

Operation Group Purpose
services API Center service management
workspaces Workspace management
apis API registration and management
api_versions API version management
api_definitions API definition management
deployments Deployment tracking
environments Environment management
metadata_schemas Custom metadata definitions

Best Practices

  1. Use workspaces to organize APIs by team or domain
  2. Define metadata schemas for consistent governance
  3. Track deployments to understand where APIs are running
  4. Import specifications to enable API analysis and linting
  5. Use lifecycle stages to track API maturity
  6. Add contacts for API ownership and support
