Shashiks and Rushmin and all: Thanks for your fast reply! I totally understood what you wrote.
I knew that I need web servers like Tomcat or Application server to deploy apps first. I understood that part. That’s not my question. In my case, each developer has his own account and deploy their apps on Application Server already. That task has been done! My question is after that, each developer wants to deploy his own apps in a common store, which will be used by a lot of subscribers. Say, by using the guide from https://docs.wso2.com/display/APPM100/Quick+Start+Guide , each developer will have both creator and publisher roles. Since each developer has publisher role, he can publish/unpublish other developers’ apps. That’s not what I want. I want each app from one developer is invisible to others. In my case, I don’t have a dedicated person for only publisher role. So each developer must have both creator and publisher role because otherwise it will delay the process of publishing apps. So my questions are: 1. Can we use “creating users with different roles” to resolve the above issue? 2. If NO to question 1, then can we use multi-tenant model to do it. That is, each developer will be one tenant and has his own domain like developer1.com, developer2.com etc such that each developer’s apps will be invisible to others. And after that, they will share their apps in a common place, i.e., a external store, which is something like WSO2 API manager’s implementation https://docs.wso2.com/display/AM180/Publish+to+multiple+external+API+stores . I noticed that APPM100 has the multi-tenant feature, but it seems that it doesn’t have the feature of “external store”. How to do “external store” in APPM100? Please advice! Thanks in advance!

Hi Bill, To address your question 1, in WSO2 Application server, for the created tenant you can create each developer a separate account(note this yours accounts need to have web app management permission on there user account)for the same domain, then the developer can upload the web apps using that account Thank You.

So you can't 'deploy' apps in App Manager. In order to deploy apps you can use WSO2 Application Server [1]. Once you have a set of deployed applications across the organization (can be in different application servers) you can use App Manager to publish those apps and allow users to subscribe. The end users are not aware of the actual application urls, rather they will be using the app through the gateway in App Manager. (By adopting this gateway approach App Manager can have governance when the end users use the app) Having set that background, You can have different developers to deploy their apps to WSO2 Application Server and create the relevant proxy apps in WSO2 App Manager. And they can then submit the this proxy app for review and the a user who has publishing permission can approve and publish it. Hope this answers your question :-) Thanks Rushmin [1] - http://wso2.com/products/application-server/ On Thu, Jul 2, 2015 at 7:45 AM, Bill Liu <b...@kingstarusa.com <javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','b...@kingstarusa.com');> > wrote: Thank you Sam and all! Here I have new question on this. I have the similar scenario, but it’s for WSO2 APP Manager. Here we try to deploy web applications like war files instead of API’s. I currently download the binary version 1.0.0 of WSO2 App Manager from http://wso2.com/products/app-manager The case is like this: 1. I have a lot of developers. Each developer develops his/her own web applications. And each developer publishes only his own applications, not other developers’ applications. 2. We want to share those applications in a common place to an external store such that all subscribers can subscribe to them. How can I do it? Thanks in advance!

Hi Bill, You can use tenants[1] to achieve your use-case. What you can do is, add two tenants (refer [2] ) for developer1 and developer2. When you are adding a tenant you will add an admin user for that tenant so using that developer1 and developer2 can login to their tenants. When users are adding APIs In Tenant mode the API's will remain in their own tenants and will not be visible to others. If you want to share the apis developed by developer1 and developer2 in a common place you need to publish the API's to an external store. In your case you can set super tenant (which will be added by default) as the external store and you can publish the APIs to super tenant's store. refer [3] to setup an external store [1]. https://docs.wso2.com/display/AM180/Multi+Tenant+Architecture [2]. https://docs.wso2.com/display/AM180/Managing+Tenants [3]. https://docs.wso2.com/display/AM180/Publish+to+multiple+external+API+stores Thanks, Sam On Thu, May 28, 2015 at 3:25 AM, Bill Liu <b...@kingstarusa.com <javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','b...@kingstarusa.com');> > wrote: Greetings all: I am learning WSO2 API manager. I downloaded the binary version 1.8.0 from URL, http://wso2.com/api-management/try-it/. I try to set up the WSO2 API manager to achieve my goal like this: Here I have a group of developers, like developer1, developer2 and etc. Each developer develops mutiple api's. For example, developer1 develops two api's like api1_1, api1_2. And developer2 develops three api's like api2_1, api2_2, api2_3. Here each developer are allowed to publish ONLY his/her own api's to API store; in other words each developer is NOT allowed to publish any other developer's api's to API store. For example, developer1 is allowed to publish api1_1 and api1_2, but is not allowed to publish api2_1, api2_2, api2_3. And developer2 is allowed to publish api2_1, api2_2 and api2_3, but is not allowed to publish api1_1 and api1_2. The catch here is that the current implementation of WSO2 API manager allows each developer to publish other developer's api, which is not my goal. Please advice how to configure WSO2 API manager to achieve my goal. Or it's impossible? Any suggestion will be highly appreciated.
