API Portal for Amazon API Gateway provided as a Service

Get our API portal for Amazon API Gateway directly on the AWS Marketplace.

Why do you need an API portal for the Amazon API gateway?

Hundreds of thousands of organisations use the Amazon API gateway worldwide to connect systems and people to the information they need. Enabling secure connections is the role of the API portal. Both Business Managers and Developers need to understand the API's value proposition and then get fast access.

AWS provides the Serverless Developer Portal; however, there are many known issues, and a new solution is required.

Apiable offers an API portal provided as a Service which runs in the AWS ecosystem and is consumable directly via the AWS Marketplace. Connecting to an existing or new Amazon API gateway is easy, and you don't need a developer.

API teams turn to Apiable because:

It's secure - we help you secure your APIs with our OAuth 2.0 Server
It's monetisable - realise your revenue objectives
It's as s Service - don't worry, we'll run and host it for you

Make sure your APIs are deployed on AWS

It's not good to publish an API before it's ready. Make sure you've deployed your APIs and that it has a valid stage before trying to connect the Amazon API Gateway.

Connect your Amazon API Gateway to Apiable

Under integrations, add a new gateway of type Amazon API Gateway and select the AWS Region where your APIs are deployed.

Enter the Role ARN (Amazon Resource Name) for this gateway. This is recommended best practice by AWS for securely accessing customer Accounts via Cross-Account IAM Roles.

Select your Secure Authorisation Type

Native Authorisation uses a simple API Key generated by AWS. This is not recommended where sensitive data is shared via the API.
‍
Apiable Authorisation activates our secure OAuth 2.0 server on your instance to enable all OAuth 2.0 flows, this is highly recommended when you need to secure your data.
