Rapid API Hub Release Notes

We've made some updates to our platform to improve the customer experience. For February, we’ve made overall improvements to API Hub performance and fixed numerous bugs across our platform.

As always, our team is committed to providing you with the best possible experience with our product, and we appreciate your continued support and feedback. If you have any issues or bugs, you can report them to us at our support page here.

2023.2:

New:

  • Analytics Call To Action: A new page that explains the three different methods for getting API logs will show up whenever the analytics page for an API that has no logs is opened. Rapid now offers three different methods for populating an APIs logs.
    • If your API is configured to use the Rapid Proxy, whenever a call is made through the Proxy, API call logs for the consumers and provider will be created.
    • The most flexible method is to call the Platform Analytics API directly. This is a high throughput API that allows you to import API logs from any source into your RapidAPI project and use the entire analytics suite.
    • For enterprise customers who are using popular cloud API gateways, Rapid now supports best practice gateway integrations. The first supported platform is Amazon API Gateway, with plans to also support Apigee and Kong soon.
