product = client.product.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-apim",
    product_id="premium",
    parameters=ProductContract(
        display_name="Premium",
        description="Premium tier with unlimited access",
        subscription_required=True,
        approval_required=False,
        state="published"
    )
)

print(f"Created product: {product.display_name}")

Add API to Product

client.product_api.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-apim",
    product_id="premium",
    api_id="my-api"
)

Create Subscription

from azure.mgmt.apimanagement.models import SubscriptionCreateParameters

subscription = client.subscription.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-apim",
    sid="my-subscription",
    parameters=SubscriptionCreateParameters(
        display_name="My Subscription",
        scope=f"/products/premium",
        state="active"
    )
)

print(f"Subscription key: {subscription.primary_key}")

Set API Policy

from azure.mgmt.apimanagement.models import PolicyContract

policy_xml = """
<policies>
    <inbound>
        <rate-limit calls="100" renewal-period="60" />
        <set-header name="X-Custom-Header" exists-action="override">
            <value>CustomValue</value>
        </set-header>
    </inbound>
    <backend>
        <forward-request />
    </backend>
    <outbound />
    <on-error />
</policies>
"""

client.api_policy.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-apim",
    api_id="my-api",
    policy_id="policy",
    parameters=PolicyContract(
        value=policy_xml,
        format="xml"
    )
)

Create Named Value (Secret)

from azure.mgmt.apimanagement.models import NamedValueCreateContract

named_value = client.named_value.begin_create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-apim",
    named_value_id="backend-api-key",
    parameters=NamedValueCreateContract(
        display_name="Backend API Key",
        value="secret-key-value",
        secret=True
    )
).result()

Create Backend

from azure.mgmt.apimanagement.models import BackendContract

backend = client.backend.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-apim",
    backend_id="my-backend",
    parameters=BackendContract(
        url="https://api.backend.example.com",
        protocol="http",
        description="My backend service"
    )
)

Create User

from azure.mgmt.apimanagement.models import UserCreateParameters

user = client.user.create_or_update(
    resource_group_name="my-resource-group",
    service_name="my-apim",
    user_id="newuser",
    parameters=UserCreateParameters(
        email="user@example.com",
        first_name="John",
        last_name="Doe"
    )
)

Operation Groups

Best Practices

1. Use named values for secrets and configuration
2. Apply policies at appropriate scopes (global, product, API, operation)
3. Use products to bundle APIs and manage access
4. Enable Application Insights for monitoring
5. Use backends to abstract backend services
6. Version your APIs using APIM's versioning features

When to Use

This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.

AGI Framework Integration

Adapted for @techwavedev/agi-agent-kit Original source: antigravity-awesome-skills

Memory-First Protocol

Retrieve prior API design decisions, database schema choices, and error handling patterns. Cache API response templates for consistent error formatting.

# Check for prior backend/API context before starting
python3 execution/memory_manager.py auto --query "API design patterns and architecture decisions for Azure Mgmt Apimanagement Py"

Storing Results

After completing work, store backend/API decisions for future sessions:

python3 execution/memory_manager.py store \
  --content "API architecture: REST with HATEOAS, JWT auth, rate limiting at 100 req/min per tenant" \
  --type decision --project <project> \
  --tags azure-mgmt-apimanagement-py backend

Multi-Agent Collaboration

Share API contract changes with frontend agents so they update their client code, and with QA agents for test coverage.

python3 execution/cross_agent_context.py store \
  --agent "<your-agent>" \
  --action "Implemented API endpoints — 5 new routes with OpenAPI spec and integration tests" \
  --project <project>

Agent Team: Code Review

After implementation, dispatch code_review_team for two-stage review (spec compliance + code quality) before merging.
