If you haven't already, you need to register the Microsoft.ApiCenter resource provider in your subscription. You only need to register the resource provider once.
To register the resource provider in your subscription using the Azure CLI, run the following az provider register command:
az provider register --namespace Microsoft.ApiCenter You can check the registration status by running the following az provider show command:
az provider show --namespace Microsoft.ApiCenter Azure API Center instances, like all Azure resources, must be deployed into a resource group. Resource groups let you organize and manage related Azure resources.
Create a resource group using the az group create command. The following example creates a group called MyGroup in the East US location:
az group create --name MyGroup --location eastus Create an API center using the az apic create command.
The following example creates an API center called MyApiCenter in the MyGroup resource group. In this example, the API center is deployed in the West Europe location. Substitute an API center name of your choice and enter one of the available locations for your API center.
az apic create --name MyApiCenter --resource-group MyGroup --location westeurope Output from the command looks similar to the following. By default, the API center is created in the Free plan.
{ "dataApiHostname": "myapicenter.data.westeurope.azure-apicenter.ms", "id": "/subscriptions/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx/resourceGroups/mygroup/providers/Microsoft.ApiCenter/services/myapicenter", "location": "westeurope", "name": "myapicenter", "resourceGroup": "mygroup", "sku": { "name": "Free" }, "systemData": { "createdAt": "2024-06-22T21:40:35.2541624Z", "lastModifiedAt": "2024-06-22T21:40:35.2541624Z" }, "tags": {}, "type": "Microsoft.ApiCenter/services" }After deployment, your API center is ready to use!
