In the realtime situation of -IT services from development phases to production the all-time
lifesaver would be the “logging mechanism” in place, to avoid stress in the development lifecycle
and chaos after moving our application or APIs onto production
These versions do not have big changes and are not material, So take an example in the apic V5,
It has an (if) and (switch) policies each of policy has a different implementation, In the apic V10
those policies are grouped into one policy.
However, Here we go!
If we understand the internals of the API Connect, when the request lands on the data power
gateway the request is parsed and stores required information of the API transaction from the
source IP address to target URL and all the required transformation data for the analytics
purpose of that context in context variables.
So if we can access these context variables from our logging policy hence we can log as per our
requirements. Fortunately, IBM has provided all those details in their product documentation
very clearly.
Have a glance at the official documentation “Context Variables” to have a better understanding of
available variables.
In API Connect we can make all the reusable logic into Policies, by this we can have the leverage
to drag and drop the required policy (in our case it's a common logging policy).
