I would like to create a REST API from a Web Service Operation with IBM API Connect.
On IBM API Management 4 we can create a REST API and assemble a Web Service Invoke Operation by wsdl.
We can connect, discover, define, configure and review operation into "Assemble" tab in API Manager console.
How can we do same thing with IBM API Connect? I have tried to create a REST API but I can't find the same functionality.
Thank you in advance.
This feature is still available in API manager in APIConnect

In the latest release there is now the option to do this in the developer environment too https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSMNED_5.0.0/com.ibm.apic.toolkit.doc/create_api_wsdl.html

I hava a romote soap webservices wsdl and I need to consume it to publish as a rest api (json). I am using ubuntu 18. what do I have to downlaod and How can I use wso2 to publish remote SOAP wsdl to REST APIs?
You could probably solve the problem with either API Manager or Enterprise Integrator. However if you are just exposing one API to your mobile app, both of these products would probably be serious overkill.
I have a test Hyperledger Fabric running in the IBM Cloud, with the IBM Blockchain Application Service. I also have a kubernetes cluster running the Hyperledger Composer REST Server. Everything works great, but how do I extend the REST api with some custom api's?
The documentation mentions being able to use the swagger definition (yaml file) with the IBM API Connect or Strongloop product...but how do I do that, as I don't see any way to export the swagger definition?
I don't have a tutorial, but as I see it you would have to do three tasks minimally:
write your REST APIs (to do what you want to do) - perhaps these
resources on REST APIs will help ? -> Loopback ->
https://developer.ibm.com/code/patterns/create-rest-apis-using-loopback/
and in architectural in general
->https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/ws-restful/ and
build the routes for your custom APIs
customise your swagger
definitions to document your REST APIs - this may help you ->
https://www.ibm.com/developerworks/library/wa-use-swagger-to-document-and-define-restful-apis/index.html
and Swagger itself -> http://swagger.io/
If you write custom api and call it as 3rd party api which is mentioned in IBM already it will help you to response but it has very limted scope. I belive you should use swagger to understand its end point are properly configured
I am trying to learn mulesoft AnyPoint Platform, and trying to host an API using API Manager.
I already have an API created in asp.net, can i use it in API manager, or i need to create new API.
Please help
Yes its possible if you are using Cloud based API Manager where below are the steps -
Click on the "Add New API" button.
Enter the API name of Mythical
Mobile Experience API (Replace Mythical with your preferred company
name)
Enter Version name of 1.0 Leave the the API Endpoint blank for
now.
Enter a description.
You should see the API administration page for your newly created API. From this page, you can Define API in API designer using RAML, publish an API portal, and Configure endpoint for the API.
Note, If you are using on-prem API Gateway then you need to develop a proxy Mule application which then need to be deployed using auto discovery component so that it will register under api manager then You should see the API administration page for your newly created API. From this page, you can Define API in API designer using RAML, publish an API portal, and Configure endpoint for the API.
Yes you can use the API Manager for hosting the API.
Yes you can use the API created.
What happens when we do not use REST api to build a web application? And also please tell how to build a web service using REST api in PHP.
What happens when we do not use REST api to build a web application?
Nothing, you can do your project with or without REST API. Assume you are running a restaurant and you want to attach with online food service like Foodpanda,zomato you need to provide an API to interact your data without any user interface which can be done easily using REST.
Why do we need RESTful web services?
REST should be used if it is very important for you to minimize the coupling between client and server components in a distributed application. [read more]

I would like to use OAuth as authorization system for my API created on the IBM API Manager (on Bluemix). Is it possible to use the IBM MobileFirst as OAuth provider? I have already tried inserting
mobile_first_context*/authorization/v1/authorization
as “Authorization URL”, after calling
advanced_developer_portal_context*/oauth/authorize
I obtain the form to insert the credentials, I enter a MobileFirst user and password (credentials are in basic user registry) but it seems to be always failing and the form is constantly visible.
What am I getting wrong?
Thank you in advance.
This is not possible through MobileFirst Platform Foundation at this time. The question should be directed at the API Manager product. You could probably open a PMR (support ticket) for that team.
To use OAuth to the secure the APIs in IBM API Management, please see the Securing an API by using OAuth 2.0 tutorial. As provided in the earlier answer it is not possible through IBM Mobile First Platform at this time.
