In apiProduct, how do i restrict a resource with a path param in resource path ?

[mpurwar]

I have an apiProduct=Alphabet with following API Proxies-

Api Proxy	BasePath	Resource Path / Condition	Resource Path used in apiProduct	Status	Response
Customer	/customer/v1	/account/{accountid}/payment	/account/*/payment/**	Not Working	Invalid ApiKey or app details
Order	/order/v1	/{orderid}	/**	Working	200 OK

According to the Apigee docs, above is the correct method of restricting resources. But in reality, its not working.

Apigee Docs - ApiProduct configuration

Question: What would be the correct method of restricting sub resources with path or query param in between ?

@Mudit , Ideally, For your requirement, Resource path in API Product should be,

/account/*/payment

Above should work, It might take few minutes to sync above pattern to message processors if you edit the API Product.

As you can see the pattern explained here, /** won't work for empty resource path or "/" as resource path. Same logic applies for /account/*/payment/** , /account/121/payment will not be allowed.

So, You should have below resource path in your API Product,

/account/*/payment

Hope it helps. Keep us posted if any.
