Azure API Management update 4th April

On 4th April, we started a regular Azure API Management service update. The update includes the following bug fixes, changes and new features:

• You can now update the isBuffered property of a Logger through the PUT Logger call or set it through ARM templates.

• You can now remove the Managed Service Identity associated with a service through the PATCH service call with the "identity": { "type": "None" } field.

• You can now apply the CORS policy at all scopes.
• The exported OpenAPI specification file will have the requestBody parameter present only if it is specified. Before, requestBody was an empty object {}, even for HEAD or OPTIONS requests.
• We fixed a quota policy bug, which caused extensive CPU usage.
• We fixed  a configuration synchronisation bug, which might have caused intermittent 404 Not Found responses for existing APIs and operations.
• You can now create a user with a “pending” state using the REST API call.
• Newly registered users no longer need to re-input their password when clicking a confirmation link from an email.
• New restrictions apply when creating a revision through the PUT API call:

  • All revisions of the API should have the same: Name, Path, Description, Protocols, ApiVersion, ApiVersionDescription and ApiVersionSetId parameters.

  • These properties can be changed for the current revision only and the changes will be propagated to all other revisions of the API.

We deploy updates gradually. It usually takes a week or more for every active service instance to receive the updates.
