Reference

This page applies to Apigee and Apigee hybrid.

View Apigee Edge documentation.

The apigee-remote-service-cli Command Line Interface (CLI) helps you provision and manage Apigee Adapter for Envoy.

Binding commands

Binding associates a service deployed to the Istio mesh with an Apigee API product. The CLI lets you create, remove, and list bindings.

Note: In the Create Product UI, you can specify one or more services with a product. Doing so is equivalent to creating the binding using the CLI.

Add a binding

Adds a remote target binding to an API product.

Usage

For Apigee hybrid:

apigee-remote-service-cli bindings add [service_name] [product_name]  -o [organization] -e [environment] -t [token]

Parameters

Parameters Type Description
-c, --config String (Required) The path to the Apigee Remote Service config file. Tip: When you specify this option, you can omit most other command parameters. See Using the --config option.
-e, --env String (Required) An environment in your organization.
-h, --help Displays help for the command parameters.
--insecure Allow insecure server connections when using SSL
--legacy Set this flag if you are using Apigee Cloud. It sets the management and runtime URLs for Edge Cloud.
--opdk Set this flag if you are using Apigee for Private Cloud.

Apigee hybrid example:

apigee-remote-service-cli provision --organization $ORG --environment $ENV --runtime $RUNTIME --namespace $NAMESPACE --token $TOKEN > config.yaml

Token commands

You can use a JWT token to make authenticated API proxy calls instead of using an API key. The token commands let you create, inspect, and rotate JWT tokens for this purpose.

Create a JWT token

You can use a JWT token to make authenticated API proxy calls to a remote service target. See also Using JWT based authentication.

Usage

For Apigee hybrid:
apigee-remote-service-cli token create -c [config_file] --id [consumer_key] --secret [consumer_secret] -r [runtime] -o [org] -e [env]

token ok.

Rotate a JWT token

At some time after you initially generate a JWT, you might need to change the public/private key pair stored by Apigee in its encrypted key-value map (KVM). This process of generating a new key pair is called key rotation. When you rotate keys, a new private/public key pair is generated and stored in the "istio" KVM in your Apigee organization/environment. In addition, the old public key is retained along with its original key ID value.

Usage

Parameters

Parameters Type Description
-c, --config String (Required) The path to the Apigee Remote Service config file. Tip: When you specify this option, you can omit most other command parameters. See Using the --config option.
-e, --env String (Required) An environment in your organization.
-h, --help Displays help for the command parameters.
--insecure Allow insecure server connections when using SSL
--truncate int Number of certs to keep in jwks (default 2)
-o, --org String (Required) An Apigee organization. You must be an org administrator.
-r, --runtime String Apigee runtime base URL (required for hybrid or opdk).
-v, --verbose (Optional) Produces verbose output.

Example

Output

certificate successfully rotated

Using .netrc for credentials

apigee-remote-service-cli automatically picks up the username and password (for basic authentication where needed) from a .netrc file in your home directory if you are on Apigee and have an entry for the machine api.enterprise.apigee.com. If you are on Apigee Private Cloud, the machine value is the same as your management URL (for example: http://192.162.55.100).

Version command

Print the CLI version.

apigee-remote-service-cli version

Using the --config command option

The --config option specifies the location of the config file generated by the provision command. A helplful benefit of this option is that it allows you to skip most other command parameters, which the CLI pulls from the config file. These options include:
  • organization
  • environment
  • runtime
  • management
  • insecure
  • namespace
  • legacy
  • opdk

For example, you could execute the provision command like this:

apigee-remote-service-cli provision --config='old-config.yaml' > new-config.yaml
