4.3. Importing services
Copy link

Import services from a CSV file by specifying the following fields in the order specified below. Include these headers in your CSV file: 

service_name,endpoint_name,endpoint_http_method,endpoint_path,auth_mode,endpoint_system_name,type
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

You need the following information:

  • A 3scale admin account: {3SCALE_ADMIN}

  • The domain your 3scale instance is running on: {DOMAIN_NAME}

    • If you are using hosted APICast this is 3scale.net
  • The access key of your account: {ACCESS_KEY}
  • The CSV file of services, for example: examples/import_example.csv

Import the services by running:

Example

$ podman run -v $PWD/examples/import_example.csv:/tmp/import_example.csv registry.redhat.io/3scale-amp2/toolbox-rhel7:3scale2.10 3scale import csv --destination=https://{ACCESS_KEY}@{3SCALE_ADMIN}-admin.{DOMAIN_NAME} --file=/tmp/import_example.csv
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

This example uses a Podman volume to mount the resource file in the container. It assumes that the file is available in the current $PWD folder.

4.4. Copying services
Copy link

Create a new service based on an existing one from the same account or from another account. When you copy a service, the relevant ActiveDocs are also copied.

You need the following information:

  • The service id you want to copy: {SERVICE_ID}
  • A 3scale admin account: {3SCALE_ADMIN}

  • The domain your 3scale instance is running on: {DOMAIN_NAME}

    • If you are using hosted APICast this is 3scale.net
  • The access key of your account: {ACCESS_KEY}
  • The access key of the destination account if you are copying to a different account: {DEST_KEY}
  • The name for the new service: {NEW_NAME}

Example

$ podman run registry.redhat.io/3scale-amp2/toolbox-rhel7:3scale2.10 3scale copy service {SERVICE_ID} --source=https://{ACCESS_KEY}@{3SCALE_ADMIN}-admin.{DOMAIN_NAME} --destination=https://{DEST_KEY}@{3SCALE_ADMIN}-admin.{DOMAIN_NAME} --target_system_name={NEW_NAME}
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Note

If the service to be copied has custom policies, make sure that their respective custom policy definitions already exist in the destination where the service is to be copied. To learn more about copying custom policy definitions check out the Copying a policy registry

4.5. Copying service settings only
Copy link

You can bulk copy and update the service and proxy settings, metrics, methods, application plans, application plan limits, as well as mapping rules from a service to another existing service.

You need the following information:

  • The service id you want to copy: {SERVICE_ID}
  • The service id of the destination: {DEST_ID}
  • A 3scale admin account: {3SCALE_ADMIN}

  • The domain your 3scale instance is running on: {DOMAIN_NAME}

    • If you are using hosted APICast this is 3scale.net
  • The access key of your account: {ACCESS_KEY}
  • The access key of the destination account: {DEST_KEY}

Additionally, you can use the optional flags:

  • The -f flag to remove existing target service mapping rules before copying.
  • The -r flag to copy only mapping rules to target service.
Note

The update command has been deprecated and replaced by the copy command. The use of deprecated commands is not supported.

The following example command does a bulk update from one service to another existing service: 

$ podman run registry.redhat.io/3scale-amp2/toolbox-rhel7:3scale2.10 3scale update [opts] service --source=https://{ACCESS_KEY}@{3SCALE_ADMIN}-admin.{DOMAIN_NAME} --destination=https://{DEST_KEY}@{3SCALE_ADMIN}-admin.{DOMAIN_NAME} {SERVICE_ID} {DEST_ID}
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

4.6. Importing OpenAPI definitions
Copy link

To create a new service or to update an existing service, you can import the OpenAPI definition from a local file or a URL. The default service name for the import is specified by the info.title in the OpenAPI definition. However, you can override this service name using --target_system_name=<NEW NAME>. This will update the service name if it already exists, or create a new service name if it does not.

The import openapi command has the following format: 

3scale import openapi [opts] -d=<destination> <specification>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

The OpenAPI <specification> can be one of the following:

  • /path/to/your/definition/file.[json|yaml|yml]
  • http[s]://domain/resource/path.[json|yaml|yml]

Example

$ podman run registry.redhat.io/3scale-amp2/toolbox-rhel7:3scale2.10 3scale import openapi [opts] -d=https://{DEST_KEY}@{3SCALE_ADMIN}-admin.{DOMAIN_NAME}  my-test-api.json
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Command options

The import openapi command options include:

-d --destination=<value>
3scale target instance in format: http[s]://<authentication>@3scale_domain.
-t --target_system_name=<value>
3scale target system name.
--backend-api-secret-token=<value>
Custom secret token sent by the API gateway to the backend API.
--backend-api-host-header=<value>
Custom host header sent by the API gateway to the backend API.

For more options, see the 3scale import openapi --help command.

OpenAPI import rules

The following rules apply when importing OpenAPI definitions:

  • Definitions are validated as OpenAPI 2.0 or OpenAPI 3.0.
  • All mapping rules in the 3scale product are deleted.
  • To be replaced, all method names must be identical to methods defined in the OpenAPI definition operation.operationId by using exact pattern matching.
  • Only methods included in the OpenAPI definition are modified.
  • All methods that were present only in the OpenAPI definition are attached to the Hits metric.
  • All mapping rules from the OpenAPI definition are imported. You can view these in API > Integration.
  • The supported security schemes are apiKey and oauth2 with any OAuth flow type.

  • The OpenAPI specification must be one of the following:

    • Filename in the available path.
    • URL from where toolbox can download the content. The supported schemes are http and https.
    • Read from stdin standard input stream. This is controlled by setting the - value.
Note

While there is no security requirement in the specification, the service is considered as an OpenAPI. The toolbox will add a default_credentials policy, which is also known as an anonymous_policy, if it is not already in the policy chain. The default_credentials policy will be configured with the userkey provided in an optional parameter --default-credentials-userkey.

OpenAPI 3.0 limitations

The following limitations apply when importing OpenAPI 3.0 definitions:

  • Only the first server.url element in the servers list is parsed as a private URL. The server.url element’s path component will be used as the OpenAPI’s basePath property.
  • The toolbox will not parse servers in the path item and servers in the operation objects.
  • Multiple flows in the security scheme object not supported.

4.7. Managing remote access credentials
Copy link

To facilitate working with remote 3scale instances, you can use the 3scale toolbox to define the remote URL addresses and authentication details to access those remote instances in a configuration file. You can then refer to these remotes using a short name in any toolbox command.

The default location for the configuration file is $HOME/.3scalerc.yaml. However, you can specify another location using the THREESCALE_CLI_CONFIG environment variable or the --config-file <config_file> toolbox option.

When adding remote access credentials, you can specify an access_token or a provider_key:

  • http[s]://<access_token>@<3scale-instance-domain>
  • http[s]://<provider_key>@<3scale-instance-domain>

4.7.1. Adding remote access credentials
Copy link

The following example command adds a remote 3scale instance with the short <name> at <url>: 

3scale remote add [--config-file <config_file>] <name> <url>
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Example

$ podman run --name toolbox-container registry.redhat.io/3scale-amp2/toolbox-rhel7:3scale2.10 3scale remote add instance_a https://123456789@example_a.net

$ podman commit toolbox-container toolbox
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

This example creates the remote instance and commits the container to create a new image. You can then run the new image with the remote information included. For example, the following command uses the new image to show the newly added remote: 

$ podman run toolbox 3scale remote list
instance_a https://example_a.net 123456789
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

Other toolbox commands can then use the newly created image to access the added remotes. This example uses an image named toolbox instead of registry.redhat.io/3scale-amp2/toolbox-rhel7:3scale2.10.

Warning

Storing secrets for toolbox in a container is a potential security risk, for example when distributing the container with secrets to other users or using the container for automation. Use secured volumes in Podman or secrets in OpenShift.

4.16.1. Copying API products
Copy link

Create a copy of the specified source API product on the target 3scale system. By default, the source API product system name first searches the target system:

  • If a product with the selected system-name is not found, it is created.
  • If a product with the selected system-name is found, it is updated. Only missing components are created; for example, metrics, methods, mapping rules, and other configurations.

You can override the system name using the --target_system_name option.

Copied components

The following API product components are copied:

  • Configuration and settings
  • Metrics and methods
  • Mapping rules
  • Application plans, pricing rules, and limits
  • Application usage rules
  • Policies
  • Backends
  • ActiveDocs

Procedure

  • Enter the following command to copy an API product: 

    3scale product copy [opts] -s <source_remote> -d <target_remote> <source_product>
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

    The specified 3scale instance can be a remote name or a URL.

    Note

    You can copy a single API product only per command. You can copy multiple products using multiple commands. You can copy the same product multiple times by specifying a different --target_system_name name.

Use following options when copying API products: 

Options
    -d --destination=<value>             3scale target instance: URL or
                                         remote name (required).
    -s --source=<value>                  3scale source instance: URL or
                                         remote name (required).
    -t --target_system_name=<value>      Target system name: defaults to
                                         source system name.

4.17. Troubleshooting issues with SSL and TLS
Copy link

This section explains how to resolve issues with Secure Sockets Layer/Transport Layer Security (SSL/TLS).

If you are experiencing issues related to self-signed SSL certificates, you can download and use remote host certificates as described in this section. For example, typical errors include SSL certificate problem: self signed certificate or self signed certificate in certificate chain.

Procedure

  1. Download the remote host certificate using openssl. For example: 

    $ echo | openssl s_client -showcerts -servername self-signed.badssl.com -connect self-signed.badssl.com:443 2>/dev/null | sed -ne '/-BEGIN CERTIFICATE-/,/-END CERTIFICATE-/p' > self-signed-cert.pem
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

  2. Ensure that the certificate is working correctly using curl. For example: 

    $ SSL_CERT_FILE=self-signed-cert.pem curl -v https://self-signed.badssl.com
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

    If the certificate is working correctly, you will no longer get the SSL error. If the certificate is not working correctly, try running the curl command with the -k option (or its long form, --insecure). This indicates that you want to proceed even for server connections that are otherwise considered insecure.

  3. Add the SSL_CERT_FILE environment variable to your 3scale commands. For example: 

    $ podman run --env "SSL_CERT_FILE=/tmp/self-signed-cert.pem" -v $PWD/self-signed-cert.pem:/tmp/self-signed-cert.pem egistry.redhat.io/3scale-amp2/toolbox-rhel7:3scale2.10 3scale service list https://{ACCESS_KEY}@{3SCALE_ADMIN}-admin.{DOMAIN_NAME}
    Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap

    This example uses a Podman volume to mount the certificate file in the container. It assumes that the file is available in the current $PWD folder.

    An alternative approach would be to create your own toolbox image using the 3scale toolbox image as the base image and then install your own trusted certificate store.
