Need help with Azure API Management (APIM) API connection with AEP or custom API connect with AEP

[SwetaRani]

I want to connect a custom API which is created via Azure API Management (APIM) to AEP. How can I proceed? We do not have an existing API connector for the same. Is there anything like a custom connector similar to Looker Studio where we can proceed programmatically?

I have the API endpoint and authorization key. Also, I connected it to Postman and getting the data output successfully. Is there a way where I can connect Postman output to AEP?

Earlier I connected the Salesforce CRM connector in AEP and it worked fine. I connected it to CJA as well using Data view and Connections. But how can I proceed in custom API case?

Hello @SwetaRani ,

Source Connectors of AEP has something called HTTP API where we can stream the data into AEP. 

I found the below link in the AEP tutorial section, which might help you as well: Stream data with HTTP API.

Thank you for the suggestion! I have followed a similar approach as outlined in the articles. However, I'm encountering issues with the access granted to me in my project's Sandboxes. My team is currently working on providing me with

'DATASET.WRITE' access. Once that is resolved, I will proceed with full-fledged development. Nonetheless, I appreciate your help!

As others have stated, you're probably looking for the HTTP API Endpoints. Once you have those calls working in postman, you should be all set. We have plenty of calls that are brokered in APIM calling our Streaming Connection with HTTP APIs.
