This feature is subject to the "Pre-GA Offerings Terms" in the General Service Terms section of the Service Specific Terms. Pre-GA features are available "as is" and might have limited support. For more information, see the launch stage descriptions.

API Observation gives you the ability to find APIs your organization may have forgotten about and that pose a security risk because they are out of date, unsecured, or unmonitored. API Observation Shadow API Discovery finds these "shadow" APIs in your organization.

API Observation is part of Advanced API Security, which is a paid add-on to Apigee and hybrid.

To use API Observation, you must first enable Advanced API Security:

• Manage Advanced API Security for Pay-as-you-go organizations
• Manage Advanced API Security for Subscription organizations
