APIC-EM iWAN App API

• Can we do end to end deployment of iwan hub and branch side in APIC-EM with APIs calls.

The short answer is: yes.

The long answer is: Depends on APIC-EM release you're using. In release 1.3, we 'unintentionally' exposed iWAN App APIs through swagger but disabled them in further releases. Additionally, the APIs are purely for internal use and are not supported and/or well documented. Not all of the iWAN App APIs conform to API governance model put in use for APIC-EM either and it was never the intention of iWAN App team to expose and support them. For end-to-end development, one may have to use not only iWAN App APIs,  in conjunction with others from other required services (E.g. inventory-manager-service). Such usage is the onus of API-based workflow developer and iWAN App team recommends usage of UI-based workflow for all operations.

It probably makes sense to try to automate branch deployment rather than HUB, given the nature of the API (not officially supported) and that you only deploy a HUB once.

 Automating policy, which is a more likely day-n operation is supported.
