(Verse 1) In the cloud where APIs play, Azure API Management leads the way, We’ve got three policies, let’s learn their roles, Inbound, outbound, backend—let’s get it all told! (Chorus) 🎶 Inbound for the entry, where the requests arrive, Modify them here, make the backend thrive! Set the headers and context, send user IDs, Inbound’s the first stop, let’s do it with ease! 🎶 (Verse 2) Next up, it’s outbound, after the response, When the backend sends data, it’s time to ensconce, Transform that answer before it goes back, Modify the response, put it on the right track! (Chorus) 🎶 Outbound for the exit, where the answers flow, Change the responses, let the clients know! Add some headers, or tweak what you see, Outbound’s the last stop, let it be! 🎶 (Bridge) Now let’s talk backend, where connections are made, It’s about how we send requests, it’s the trade, Timeouts and retries, managing the call, Backend’s for the setup, where we handle it all! (Chorus) 🎶 Backend for the service, setting the stage, Manage how we connect, at every page! But for user context, remember the lead, Inbound is the hero, that’s what you need! 🎶 (Verse 3) So now you know the roles, and how they align, Inbound is for requests, keep that in mind! Outbound shapes responses, sends data with flair, Backend manages the service, with great care! (Outro) In the world of APIs, each policy's key, Inbound, outbound, backend, they all work in harmony! With Azure API Management, you’ll always be bright, Navigate those policies, you’ll get it just right!
