How to manage billing with WSO 2 AM (2.0.0)

Question

I would like to combine WSO2 AM and DAS with billing function. I tried to set it by referring to the following site, but the article did not correspond to WSO2 APIM(2.0.0). http://wso2.com/library/articles/2016/07/article-enabling-monetization-of-apis-with-wso2-api-manager/ http://www.rukspot.com/Publishing_APIM_1100_Runtime_Statistics_to_DAS.html

I want to publish WSO 2 APIM(2.0.0) runtime statistics to DAS. But,WSO2 AM(2.0.0) does not have admin-dashboard like WSO2 AM(1.10.X).

・Should I lower the WSO2 AM version? ・Is there a procedure / article based on WSO 2 AM (2.0.0)? ・Do you have my point should be noted?

Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

From 2.0.0 onwards, it's called admin portal, and the URL is https://localhost:9443/admin. However, analytics configurations are removed from Admin Portal UI. So you have to use api-manager.xml file to configure analytics.

Refer this doc to configure analytics in 2.0.0.

Also, note that online service based on API Manager - WSO2 API Cloud - has API monetization and billing integration available out-of-box - just configure your billing plans and bank account and start collecting money: https://docs.wso2.com/display/APICloud/Enable+Monetization

Answer 3

There´s a guide on the same blog that you linked

http://www.rukspot.com/configure_wso2_das_for_apim_analytics.html

This is for configuring DAS. If you only care about analytics data for apim I would recommend the new wso2am-analytics instead of the DAS. It's made specially for the apim and much easier to configure. See the guide that Bhatiya provided on how to configure wso2am-analytics.

Answer 4

The article is for APIM 1.10.0 and DAS 3.0.x. If you want to try this with APIM 2.0.0 you need to used the sample billing engine in this repo. checkout the tag am-2.0 and check.
