Can I update an existing virtual host without having to delete/recreate it?

If I want to update an existing virtual host in an on-prem install, do I have to undeploy any apis that are currently using the VH, delete the VH, and recreate it with the desired configuration?

I thought I could just update the VH “in place” by using this management API: http://apigee.com/docs/management/apis/put/organizations/%7Borg_name%7D/environments/%7Benv_name%7D/virtualhosts/%7Bvirtualhost_name%7D

No need Stephen, you could just update VH inplace using the API you mentioned

Hi @sgilson,

You can update an existing VirtualHost by adding the existing VirtualHost name in your API call, as the endpoint {virtualhost_name} as in the doc you linked. (If you were creating, you would have to remove the {virtualhost_name}, as the system will take the name from the XML/JSON you send via the POST).

Thanks.

but you will need to know its current configuration for that to work… you cant just “ADD” entries - you need to update the whole thing.
