How to consume Internal API pipelines using ZTNA
Learn how to consume and publish pipelines configured as Internal API in realms using ZTNA.
On the Digibee Integration Platform, ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access) is an extra layer of security that can be applied in pipelines, ensuring that services are securely and privately accessed.
For realms using ZTNA, the process for consuming internal APIs is similar to realms using VPN. Supported triggers for this feature include: HTTP, HTTP File, and REST.
Enabling Internal API
To enable the Internal API feature in your realm:
Contact Digibee Support.
Provide your Edge Router details for registration.
The IP or DNS of the Edge Router you have configured in your infrastructure.
The port to send traffic to.
This information allows Digibee to create the inverse flow connecting your network to Digibee’s, ensuring secure and private communication. Inverse Flow in the Digibee Integration Platform allows you to execute calls from your infrastructure to internal pipelines within the Platform using ZTNA.
Configuring a pipeline to use Internal API
To configure the pipeline using the Internal API:
Enable Internal API and API Key in the trigger configuration form.
Assign the pipeline to an API Key.
Deploy the pipeline on the Run page.
Open the card of the deployed pipeline to find the access link in this format:
https://{replace-with-Digibee-internal-host}/pipeline/realm/v1/{{pipeline-name}}
Consuming pipelines through ZTNA
To consume a pipeline using ZTNA:
Use the IP address of the Edge Router and the environment-specific ZTNA mapping port:
Production environment: Use port 7070:
http://{{IP-EDGE}}:7070/pipeline/realm/v1/{{pipeline-name}}
Test environment: Use port 9090:
http://{{IP-EDGE}}:9090/pipeline/realm/v1/{{pipeline-name}}
Use HTTP instead of HTTPS when calling the pipeline.
For additional details, refer to the documentation on ZTNA implementation on the Digibee Integration Platform.
