# Azure.ResourceManager.ApiCenter (.NET)

## Overview

This public intake copy packages `plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet` from `https://github.com/sickn33/antigravity-awesome-skills` into the native Omni Skills editorial shape without hiding its origin.

Use it when the operator needs the upstream workflow, support files, and repository context to stay intact while the public validator and private enhancer continue their normal downstream flow.

This intake keeps the copied upstream files intact and uses the `external_source` block in `metadata.json` plus `ORIGIN.md` as the provenance anchor for review.

# Azure.ResourceManager.ApiCenter (.NET) Centralized API inventory and governance SDK for managing APIs across your organization.

Imported source sections that did not map cleanly to the public headings are still preserved below or in the support files. Notable imported sections: Environment Variables, Authentication, Error Handling, Limitations.

## When to Use This Skill

Use this section as the trigger filter. It should make the activation boundary explicit before the operator loads files, runs commands, or opens a pull request.

- This skill is applicable to execute the workflow or actions described in the overview.
- Use when the request clearly matches the imported source intent: Azure API Center SDK for .NET. Centralized API inventory management with governance, versioning, and discovery.
- Use when the operator should preserve upstream workflow detail instead of rewriting the process from scratch.
- Use when provenance needs to stay visible in the answer, PR, or review packet.
- Use when copied upstream references, examples, or scripts materially improve the answer.
- Use when the workflow should remain reviewable in the public intake repo before the private enhancer takes over.

## Operating Table

| Situation | Start here | Why it matters |
| --- | --- | --- |
| First-time use | `metadata.json` | Confirms repository, branch, commit, and imported path through the `external_source` block before touching the copied workflow |
| Provenance review | `ORIGIN.md` | Gives reviewers a plain-language audit trail for the imported source |
| Workflow execution | `SKILL.md` | Starts with the smallest copied file that materially changes execution |
| Supporting context | `SKILL.md` | Adds the next most relevant copied source file without loading the entire package |
| Handoff decision | `## Related Skills` | Helps the operator switch to a stronger native skill when the task drifts |

## Workflow

This workflow is intentionally editorial and operational at the same time. It keeps the imported source useful to the operator while still satisfying the public intake standards that feed the downstream enhancer flow.

};

// Add custom metadata
apiData.CustomProperties = BinaryData.FromObjectAsJson(new
{
    team = "orders-team",
    costCenter = "CC-1234"
});

ArmOperation<ApiCenterApiResource> operation = await apis
    .CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, "orders-api", apiData);

    LifecycleStage = ApiLifecycleStage.Production
};

ArmOperation<ApiCenterApiVersionResource> operation = await versions
    .CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, "v1-0-0", versionData);

ApiCenterApiVersionResource version = operation.Value;
```

### 5. Create API Definition (Upload OpenAPI Spec)

```csharp
ApiCenterApiDefinitionCollection definitions = version.GetApiCenterApiDefinitions();

ApiCenterApiDefinitionData definitionData = new ApiCenterApiDefinitionData
{
    Title = "OpenAPI Specification",
    Description = "Orders API OpenAPI 3.0 definition"
};

ArmOperation<ApiCenterApiDefinitionResource> operation = await definitions
    .CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, "openapi", definitionData);

    }
};

ArmOperation<ApiCenterEnvironmentResource> operation = await environments
    .CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, "production", envData);
```

### 8. Create Deployment

ApiCenterDeploymentCollection deployments = workspace.GetApiCenterDeployments();

// Get environment resource ID
ResourceIdentifier envResourceId = ApiCenterEnvironmentResource.CreateResourceIdentifier(
    subscriptionId, resourceGroupName, serviceName, workspaceName, "production");

// Get API definition resource ID

ApiCenterMetadataSchemaCollection schemas = service.GetApiCenterMetadataSchemas();

string jsonSchema = """
{
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
        "team": {
            "type": "string",
            "title": "Owning Team"
        },
        "costCenter": {
            "type": "string",
            "title": "Cost Center"
        },
        "dataClassification": {
            "type": "string",
            "enum": ["public", "internal", "confidential"],
            "title": "Data Classification"
        }
    },
    "required": ["team"]
}
""";

ApiCenterMetadataSchemaData schemaData = new ApiCenterMetadataSchemaData
{
    Schema = jsonSchema,
    AssignedTo =
    {
        new MetadataAssignment
        {
            Entity = MetadataAssignmentEntity.Api,
            Required = true
        }
    }
};

ArmOperation<ApiCenterMetadataSchemaResource> operation = await schemas
    .CreateOrUpdateAsync(WaitUntil.Completed, "api-metadata", schemaData);
```

### 10. List and Search APIs

```csharp
// List all APIs in a workspace
ApiCenterWorkspaceResource workspace = await client
    .GetApiCenterWorkspaceResource(workspaceResourceId)
    .GetAsync();

await foreach (ApiCenterApiResource api in workspace.GetApiCenterApis())
{
    Console.WriteLine($"API: {api.Data.Title}");
    Console.WriteLine($"  Kind: {api.Data.Kind}");
    Console.WriteLine($"  Stage: {api.Data.LifecycleStage}");

    // List versions
    await foreach (ApiCenterApiVersionResource version in api.GetApiCenterApiVersions())
    {
        Console.WriteLine($"  Version: {version.Data.Title}");
    }
}

// List environments
await foreach (ApiCenterEnvironmentResource env in workspace.GetApiCenterEnvironments())
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Environment: {env.Data.Title} ({env.Data.Kind})");
}

// List deployments
await foreach (ApiCenterDeploymentResource deployment in workspace.GetApiCenterDeployments())
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Deployment: {deployment.Data.Title}");
    Console.WriteLine($"  State: {deployment.Data.State}");
}
```

```bash
AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION_ID=<your-subscription-id>
AZURE_RESOURCE_GROUP=<your-resource-group>
AZURE_APICENTER_SERVICE_NAME=<your-apicenter-service>
```

## Examples

### Example 1: Ask for the upstream workflow directly

```text
Use @azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet-v2 to handle <task>. Start from the copied upstream workflow, load only the files that change the outcome, and keep provenance visible in the answer.
```

**Explanation:** This is the safest starting point when the operator needs the imported workflow, but not the entire repository.

### Example 2: Ask for a provenance-grounded review

```text
Review @azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet-v2 against metadata.json and ORIGIN.md, then explain which copied upstream files you would load first and why.
```

**Explanation:** Use this before review or troubleshooting when you need a precise, auditable explanation of origin and file selection.

### Example 3: Narrow the copied support files before execution

```text
Use @azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet-v2 for <task>. Load only the copied references, examples, or scripts that change the outcome, and name the files explicitly before proceeding.
```

**Explanation:** This keeps the skill aligned with progressive disclosure instead of loading the whole copied package by default.

### Example 4: Build a reviewer packet

```text
Review @azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet-v2 using the copied upstream files plus provenance, then summarize any gaps before merge.
```

**Explanation:** This is useful when the PR is waiting for human review and you want a repeatable audit packet.



## Best Practices

Treat the generated public skill as a reviewable packaging layer around the upstream repository. The goal is to keep provenance explicit and load only the copied source material that materially improves execution.

- Organize with workspaces — Group APIs by team, domain, or product
- Use metadata schemas — Define custom properties for governance
- Track lifecycle stages — Keep API status current (design → production → deprecated)
- Document environments — Include onboarding instructions and portal URIs
- Version consistently — Use semantic versioning for API versions
- Import specifications — Upload OpenAPI/GraphQL specs for discovery
- Link deployments — Connect APIs to their runtime environments

8. **Use managed identity** — Enable SystemAssigned identity for secure integrations

## Troubleshooting

### Problem: The operator skipped the imported context and answered too generically

**Symptoms:** The result ignores the upstream workflow in `plugins/antigravity-awesome-skills/skills/azure-mgmt-apicenter-dotnet`, fails to mention provenance, or does not use any copied source files at all.
**Solution:** Re-open `metadata.json`, `ORIGIN.md`, and the most relevant copied upstream files. Check the `external_source` block first, then restate the provenance before continuing.

### Problem: The imported workflow feels incomplete during review

**Symptoms:** Reviewers can see the generated `SKILL.md`, but they cannot quickly tell which references, examples, or scripts matter for the current task.
**Solution:** Point at the exact copied references, examples, scripts, or assets that justify the path you took. If the gap is still real, record it in the PR instead of hiding it.

### Problem: The task drifted into a different specialization

**Symptoms:** The imported skill starts in the right place, but the work turns into debugging, architecture, design, security, or release orchestration that a native skill handles better.
**Solution:** Use the related skills section to hand off deliberately. Keep the imported provenance visible so the next skill inherits the right context instead of starting blind.

## Additional Resources

Use this support matrix and the linked files below as the operator packet for this imported skill. They should reflect real copied source material, not generic scaffolding.

| Resource family | What it gives the reviewer | Example path |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `references` | copied reference notes, guides, or background material from upstream | `references/n/a` |
| `examples` | worked examples or reusable prompts copied from upstream | `examples/n/a` |
| `scripts` | upstream helper scripts that change execution or validation | `scripts/n/a` |
| `agents` | routing or delegation notes that are genuinely part of the imported package | `agents/n/a` |
| `assets` | supporting assets or schemas copied from the source package | `assets/n/a` |
