Does Apigee Hybrid supports exposing a SOAP web service as an API Proxy?

I could not find details about the same in Apigee Hybrid Documentation ( https://cloud.google.com/apigee/docs/api-platform/develop/overview)

you can try SOAP pass through proxy.

I was able to implement the Soap Proxy using Apigee Edge. I wanted to check if the same is supported by Apigee Hybrid as well.

I don’t feel there is a change in proxy working mechanism.

The SOAP proxy wizard is not available in hybrid but you can try and import a proxy created using Apigee SaaS. I haven’t tested this myself, but I think it should work

For completeness:

If you want to automate your proxy generation there is a WSDL to Apigee conversion tool that generates proxy bundles: https://github.com/apigee/wsdl2apigee.

For a one-off task, the SaaS based import/export as suggested by Debora is probably easier.

Hi,

May I know the reason for not including this feature(SOAP APIs) in Apigee X or Apigee Hybrid. Furthermore, there no option for hosting nodejs applications in Apigee x or Hybrid. Why is that?

Two different reasons.

For #1, fewer people were using the Wizard. As Daniel Strebel pointed out, you can still use the tool to produce a proxy. It works the same way, same code. It’s just that there’s no UI.

For #2, we have better options for running nodejs code now - App Engine is a good example. Cloud Run. So we removed that capability in order to focus more on API Management, rather than on hosting logic.
