Usage Notes

Use ApiSubscription configuration to manage access to your APIs. Each subscription can grant access to multiple APIs and can include subscription-specific settings.

The Apis array lists the API names that subscribers can access. Ensure these API names match existing API configurations.

The AdditionalHeaders are automatically included in all requests made under this subscription. Use this to add tracking headers, authentication context, or routing information.

Common parameters include:

RateLimit - Maximum number of requests allowed
RateLimitPeriod - Time period for rate limiting (second, minute, hour, day)
MaxConcurrentRequests - Maximum simultaneous requests
EnableCaching - Whether to cache responses for this subscription

Subscriptions can be deactivated by setting IsActive to false without deleting the configuration.
