tips and tricks for uploading API proxy in Proxy Bundle
Hello All,
I am trying to upload the sample projects in the Zip formats to my workspace. Sometimes I am able to import sometimes not.
Can anyone please me help with some basics of this Zip files , like
- what is the folder tree structure
- what should be there as a must and minimum to get uploaded.
- what should not be there.
- if we have all the policies and proxy default files. how can we Zip them to upload them using Proxy Bundle Import functionality
thanks
Sushanth

Here is an example ZIP showing the structure :

Extraneous entries at the toplevel are ignored. Extraneous entries in other directories will often (but not always) lead to problems.
A good way to generate a basic "bare minimum" ZIP bundle is to use the Apigee Admin UI to generate a passthrough proxy, then click "download" to get the zip.
I keep my proxies stored "unzipped" on my filesystem, and zip them only to import them. I use macos, and here is the command I use to zip a proxy bundle:
zip apiproxy-bundle.zip -r apiproxy -x \*.\*~
The -x option there omits backup files from the bundle - these are files named with a twiddle (~) that get auto-generated by my text editor.
If you are interested, there are scripts and tools that zip up bundles for you, and can import and deploy too.
For example
- here is a script in nodejs
-
here is a powershell module that lets you do this:
PS C:\dev\ps> Import-EdgeApi -Name dino-test-6 -Source c:\my\directory
hello Dino,
I am downloaded bundle from opdk 4.19.06 and tried to upload the same on apigee-hybrid1.2. But it is giving me bundle contains error.
Can you please help to solve this. I can't share the bundle but it is valid as I can reimport it on opdk.
Below is a line from the logs I can see is relevant other stuff is not at all helpful.
status: {code: 3 message: "bundle contains errors"Thanks
I'm sorry that error message is not very clear or helpful.
Yes. I can help a bit.
First, This seems like a new question. I know it's related to bundle structure, but it's not the same question as asked originally here, in 2019. Please in the future, click the green "Ask a Question" button instead of posting a question as a comment to an existing answer.
There are some features that are supported in OPDK, which are not supported in Apigee hybrid. View the comparison table here. An example of a difference for OPDK and hybrid, the LDAP policy is supported only in OPDK, as far as I know.
To get further information and assistance diagnosing the problem, try posting a new question with "hybrid" in the title.
