apiProxyDownload

Download a specific API Proxy from the API Portal

Description

With this step you can download a specific API Proxy from the API Portal, which returns a zip file with the api proxy contents in to current workspace using the OData API. Learn more about the SAP API Management API for downloading an api proxy artifact here.

Usage

We recommend to define values of step parameters via .pipeline/config.yml file.
In this case, calling the step is essentially reduced to defining the step name.
Calling the step can be done either in an orchestrator specific way (e.g. via a Jenkins library step) or on the command line.
