Security Policies for APIs and Proxies

Manage and apply security policies for proxies and endpoints.

Overview

Supported security policies for proxies and endpoints are the same as those for APIs and API Versions.

To apply security policies to the proxy or to the endpoints, editing the proxy settings or the endpoint settings.

Note: A proxy and its endpoints can have a maximum of one enabled policy of each policy type. If both the proxy and the endpoint have defined policies of the same type, the endpoint policy has precedence over the proxy policy.
