[#1]

I want to create an API proxy having base url something like:

\clients\{clientid}\product\

and later i want to extract the client id for further process

is there any way ??

Hi,

I think you are asking something related to a sample given under Extract Variable Policy

REF:http://apigee.com/docs/api-services/reference/extr...

Please check this one.

<ExtractVariables name="ExtractVariables-1">
   <DisplayName>Extract a portion of the url path</DisplayName>
   <Source>request</Source>
   <URIPath>
      <Pattern ignoreCase="true">/accounts/{id}</Pattern>
   </URIPath>
   <VariablePrefix>urirequest</VariablePrefix>
   <IgnoreUnresolvedVariables>true</IgnoreUnresolvedVariables>
</ExtractVariables>

Hi,

I tried this but i am unable to extract variable which comes under basepath of my API proxy.

BasePath:

/clients/*/assist

Resource:

/v1/converter

Now here's my url:

/clients/mct/assist/v1/converter?

now i want extract 'mct' from the above url thorough message extract policy but i am getting 'null'

Extract variable policy:

<DisplayName>Extract Variables 1</DisplayName>
   <URIPath>
     <Pattern ignoreCase="true">/clients/{clientid}/assist/**</Pattern>
  </URIPath>
    <VariablePrefix>REQ</VariablePrefix>

i am able to extract variable if it is in resource path but the same thing is not working for basepath

[#4 · Accepted solution]

Basepath cannot be URI.Thatswhy you are not able to define the pattern for extraction in URIPath.

Also,you cannot have changing basepath(here "clientid").When you create Basepath you cannot give * in the path.

@Vinay Soni and @Anil Sagar

I think I am still able to achieve Vinay Soni's requirement.

I did as below,

I created a Proxy basepath as /dynamicbasepath/*/test

And able to extract the dynamic value as below

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?>
<ExtractVariables async="false" continueOnError="false" enabled="true" name="Extract-Variables-1">
    <DisplayName>Extract Variables-1</DisplayName>
    <Variable name="proxy.url">
        <Pattern>*/dynamicbasepath/{dynamic_value}/test</Pattern>
    </Variable>
</ExtractVariables>

Dear @Vinay Soni ,

Welcome to Apigee Community.

As said by, @RadhamaniRamadoss basepath cannot be dynamic. Please check duplicate question i have marked here for more details.

You need to move your dynamic paths to resources / conditional flows and use extract variables policy to extract same. Please keep us posted if you have any queries.

Cheers,
