Configuring Secure Vault in API Manager

I have discussed configuring secure vault in my previous blogpost. In API Manager also the steps would be same. The additional file that needed to be encrypted will be the api-manager.xml. In api-manager.xml, there will be three sections that will be used password for achieve their functionality. They will be as follow

• Auth Manager Section
• API Key Validator Section
• Environments Section

To encrypt the passwords. Please follow below approach. The alias should be have the following format.

cipher-tool.properties

AuthManager.Password=repository/conf/api-manager.xml//APIManager/AuthManager/Password,true

APIGateway.Environments.Environment.Password=repository/conf/api-manager.xml//APIManager/APIGateway/Environments/Environment/Password,true

APIKeyValidator.Password=repository/conf/api-manager.xml//APIManager/APIKeyValidator/Password,true

cipher-text.properties

APIKeyValidator.Password=[admin]

APIGateway.Environments.Environment.Password=[admin]

AuthManager.Password=[admin]

Then execute  ./ciphertool.sh -Dconfigure

Note : Please replace your passwords with actual values in cipher-text.properties

 before execute ./ciphertool.sh -Dconfigure
