Creating Public Variable with Proxy Software Catalog Item

13.4

Description

I am attempting to create a software catalog item that will add an endpoint on a specific listener , a proxy, and public variable for outbound traffic from the Envoy api-gateway. These share an infrastructure-layer api gateway (Azure API Management) that we are targeting sub-resources on. If Project A and B need access to Project C functionality, this is all routed through a shared api gateway instance with sub-resources indicating A, B, and C:

example: http://apigw/A, http://apigw/B, http://apigw/C

Actual Outcome

What I see with the software catalog for a proxy-type when I specify unsecreted variables is that the variable is not created:

    "services": {
        "Capability-Proxy": {
            "type": "external",
            "name": "{capability-initial}-proxy",
            "url": "http://{{VU_AZURE_APIM}}/{capability-initial}"
        }
    },
    "unsecretedVariables": {
        "VU_AZURE_APIM": {
            "productionEnv": "internalK8sAddress",
            "noProductionEnv": "internalK8sAddress"
        }
    }
}

What I see when I attempt to use an application-type it seems to be that the service, although defined as an external, the console is attempting to create a repo in Github (I assume leveraging the provider configuration that we have configured).

Expected Outcome

I would like to create a proxy (using a public variable), an endpoint for this proxy, and the public variable be created if it doesn't exist.

Hi @swageblock,
At the moment, it is not possible to create a proxy with the application. Our support team will contact you to better understand your needs and the priority related to this case.
Thank you.
