Thanks for reporting! I updated [1] and [2] as follows: - Removed the instructions that explain how to update the API source code via the source view UI in order to engage a custom API to a specific set of APIs. - Mentioned that the velocity_template should be used to engage a custom handler to a specific set of APIs - Added the following note.
"It is not recommended to update the API source code via the source view UI or file system when engaging a custom handler to selected APIs, because the customizations get overridden by the publisher updates.
