Public Preview: Managed Developer Portal in Azure API Center (API Center Portal)

Having a developer portal for your APIs is crucial as it provides a centralized location for all API documentation and resources, making it easier for developers to find the information they need. Additionally, it facilitates better collaboration among teams by offering a shared space for API knowledge and improving transparency. 

We are excited to announce that Azure API Center now offers a managed API Center Portal - an API developer portal designed to support and streamline the work of developers who use and create APIs within an organization. 

The managed API Center portal includes: 

• View API details and definitions: This feature allows developers to access comprehensive information about each API, including endpoints, methods, parameters, and response formats. It helps developers understand how to interact with the APIs effectively. 

• Customize with branding: The portal allows customers to reflect the organization's branding. Currently, in preview API Center portal supports name customization, enabling organizations to personalize the portal with their brand name. 

• Integrate with Microsoft Entra: This integration provides seamless authentication and authorization capabilities, leveraging Microsoft Entra's identity and access management services. It ensures secure access to the APIs and simplifies user management. 

While this is a preview release, we are actively working improving the design and capabilities of the API Center Portal.
