API workflow

Use this workflow to create a Cloudlet policy:

1. List groups in Cloudlets API v2 to retrieve information about which Cloudlets are associated with the groups you have edit privileges for. You'll need the groupId values returned by this request when you create a Cloudlet policy.

2. Create a policy to create a Cloudlet policy using the groupId you retrieved from the previous step and the code of a chosen Cloudlet:

   • AP for API Prioritization
   • AS for Audience Segmentation
   • ER for Edge Redirector
   • FR for Forward Rewrite
   • CD for Phased Release
   • IG for Request Control

   The policyId is returned in the response when the Cloudlet policy is created.

3. Create a policy version. Include a version description and add match rules .

4. Activate a policy version on the staging or production network. This returns an Activation object with the activation id.

5. Use the activation id to Get status for an activation.

6. Use the Property Manager API (PAPI) to set up the behavior for the Cloudlet you're configuring. For more information on the currently supported Cloudlets, see:

   • API Prioritization
   • Audience Segmentation
   • Edge Redirector
   • Forward Rewrite
   • Phased Release
   • Request Control

7. Using PAPI, activate the property version that includes your Cloudlets behavior changes.

Use this workflow to upgrade a legacy policy to a shared policy:

1. List shared policies to retrieve and determine the policyId that you want to upgrade.

2. Clone a policy as a shared policy using the policyId you retrieved previously. As a result a new policyId is created.

3. Activate a policy version on the staging or production network. This returns an Activation object with the activation id.

4. Use the activation id to Get status for an activation.

5. Use PAPI to edit the behavior for the chosen Cloudlet.

6. Using PAPI, activate the property version that includes your Cloudlets behavior changes.
