De forma predeterminada, el host y el puerto (tráfico) se establecen de forma predeterminada en 0 y 8998, respectivamente.
Debes definir el puerto cuando instalas el emulador de Apigee y los valores de la ruta base y los recursos cuando desarrollas tu proxy de API.
Usa curl para probar tus API
Para probar tus API con curl, abre la pestaña Terminal y ejecuta una llamada a tu API.
Por ejemplo:
curl 0:8998/helloworld
Autentica mediante una clave de API
Si tu API requiere autenticación basada en la clave de API, se deben cumplir los siguientes requisitos:
Compila y exporta los productos de API, el desarrollador y los recursos de prueba de la app para desarrolladores, como se describe en Compila recursos de prueba.
Haz clic en Active developer apps en la sección Active test resources del emulador de Apigee y copia el valor de consumerKey (sin comillas) para el producto de API, como se muestra en siguiente figura.
Pasa la clave de API en tu llamada a curl, según lo requiera tu API. Por ejemplo, la siguiente llamada curl pasa la clave de API en el parámetro de consulta apikey:

See also [Managing folders and files in an Apigee workspace](/apigee/docs/api-platform/local-development/vscode/manage-apigee-workspace#manage-folders-files).\n| **Note:** Before you test an API, you may need to build and export a set of test resources, such as API products, developers, or apps, that represent those same resources that might exist in your production environment. See [Building and exporting test resources](/apigee/docs/api-platform/local-development/vscode/build-test-resources).\n\nDetermining the URL of the API proxy endpoint\n---------------------------------------------\n\nWhen you deploy your environment, the URL of the API proxy endpoint is displayed in the **emulators** section, under **Active deployments**.\n\nTo copy the URL for the API proxy endpoint, position your cursor over the URL and click .\n\nThe URL for your API proxy endpoint is structured as follows: \n\n```\n\nhttps://0:8998/shopping/cart/addItem\n |_____||____________||______|\n | | |\n host+port basepath resource\n```\n\nBy default, the host and port (traffic) default to `0`\nand `8998`, respectively.\n\nYou define the port when installing the Apigee Emulator, and the basepath and resource values when [developing your API proxy](/apigee/docs/api-platform/local-development/vscode/develop-apiproxies).\n\nUsing curl to test your APIs\n----------------------------\n\nTo test your APIs using curl, open the **Terminal** tab and execute a call to your API.\n\nFor example: \n\n```\ncurl 0:8998/helloworld\n```\n\nAuthenticating using an API key\n-------------------------------\n\nIf your API requires API key-based authentication:\n\n- Build and export the API product, developer, and developer app test resources, as described in [Building test resources](/apigee/docs/api-platform/local-development/vscode/build-test-resources)\n- Click **Active developer apps** in the **Active test resources** section of the Apigee Emulator and copy the `consumerKey` value (without the quotes) for the API product, as shown in the following figure.\n\nPass the API key in your curl call, as required by your API. For example, the following curl call passes the API key in the `apikey` query parameter: \n\n```\ncurl 0:8998/helloworld?apikey=ZQA5euYtNeJ7ZCGCJMpvd6F2BZOmxOzY\n```"]]
