Question

APIM workspace api url

Laurens van de Venn 240

Hi,

I have created an API in API Management workspace.

Base url is having workspace name and looks like a random generated part in the url ending with .gateway.<region>.azure-api.net/<apiname>

Which url can be used to call the api?

Regards,

Laurens van de Venn

When you create an API in an Azure API Management (APIM) workspace, the base URL typically includes a unique workspace identifier and follows this format:

https://<workspace-id>.gateway.<region>.azure-api.net/<api-name>

This URL is automatically generated by Azure and is used to call your API directly. Here's how it works:

✅ How to Use the URL to Call Your API

Locate the full base URL in the Azure portal under:

APIM Workspace → APIs → Your API → Settings
- Look for the Gateway URL or Base URL.
Use the full path including the API name and any route defined in your operation. For example: https://abc123.workspace.gateway.westus.azure-api.net/myapi/v1/resource Ensure the API is published and the operation is enabled. Authentication:
```
- If your API requires a subscription key, include it in the header:

```yaml
Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key: &lt;your-subscription-key&gt;
```

   - Or use OAuth or other configured security mechanisms.
```

🛠️ Custom Domains (Optional)

If you want a cleaner or branded URL (e.g., https://api.yourdomain.com), you can configure a custom domain in APIM. This requires:

DNS setup
TLS certificate
Updating APIM gateway settings [1]

Would you like help retrieving your exact workspace API URL or setting up a custom domain for it?
