Connected Apps

The Connected Apps feature provides a framework that enables an external application to integrate with Anypoint Platform using APIs through OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect. Connected apps help users delegate their access without sharing sensitive credentials or giving full control of their accounts to third parties. Actions taken by connected apps are audited, and users can also revoke access at any time. Note that some products do not currently include client IDs in this release of the Connected Apps feature. The Connected Apps feature enables you to use secure authentication protocols and control an app’s access to user data. Additionally, end users can authorize the app to access their Anypoint Platform data.

* Sharing Mule applications as templates is a great way to share your work with other people who are in your organization in Anypoint Platform. When they need to build a similar application they can create the mule application using the template project from Anypoint studio.

* Anypoint Templates are designed to make it easier and faster to go from a blank canvas to a production application. They’re bit for bit Mule applications requiring only Anypoint Studio to build and design, and are deployable both on-premises and in the cloud.

* Anypoint Templates are based on five common data Integration patterns and can be customized and extended to fit your integration needs. So even if your use case involves different endpoints or connectors than those included in the template, they still offer a great starting point. 

Some of the best practices while creating the template project: - Define the common error handler as part of template project, either using pom dependency or mule config file - Define common logger/audit framework as part of the template project - Define the env specific properties and secure properties file as per the requirement - Define global.xml for global configuration - Define the config file for connector configuration like Http,Salesforce,File,FTP etc - Create separate folders to create DWL,Properties,SSL certificates etc - Add the dependency and configure the pom.xml as per the business need - Configure the mule-artifact.json as per the business need

Correct answer is Create WSDL specification using text editor SOAP services are specified using WSDL. A client program connecting to a web service can read the WSDL to determine what functions are available on the server. We can not create WSDL specification in Design Center. We need to use external text editor to create WSDL.

* Organization should continue to use SCM system of their choice, in addition to keeping source code for these asset types in Anypoint Exchange, thereby enabling parallel development, branching.

* Reason is that Anypoint exchange is not full fledged version repositories like GitHub.
