Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND

Google Cloud Apigee
1

Hi,

I’ve implemented a POC of an API proxy, very simple for a get operation and I was trying to invoke it via Postman and/or browser.

When trying to invoke the proxy I am getting the error "Error: getaddrinfo ENOTFOUND ".

I took the hostname from the environment groups and even tried to force a hostname through Domains in the settings portal, however the error is always the same.

Can anyone help me with this DNS issue please?

Hi @rduarte ,

Thanks for evaluating Apigee X. Seems like you are missing some fundamental understanding of how Apigee X works.

First off there are 2 high level architecture components:

  • API runtime that processes API calls to your proxies, which generally uses instances, environments and environment groups. It’s accessed via the GCP console to create proxies, etc.
  • the Developer Portal which allows you to publish your API documentation and allows API consumers to view your APIs and create Apps in a self-service fashion. It’s configured in the “Classic Apigee UI”.

For the API runtime, please review the Apigee Architecture. You will need to complete the “Access Routing” portion of the Evaluation Wizard. Apigee X runtime exposes a private IP address that is configured as a backend of your Global Load Balancer (GLB). The GLB is where you get a custom domain for your APIs, or you can use the special nip.io value that the wizard offers. Using nip.io is easiest since you don’t have to worry about using your own domain if you don’t have one.

For the Developer Portal, please review Publishing overview to understand relationship between API proxies, Products, Developers and Apps. Also see Building your integrated portal, but it looks like you already created that as I can access it at "https://winter-cogency-443014-e3-p11.apigee.io" the default hostname. You can add a custom domain by following the instructions on Customizing your domain, but that is not necessary as it’s just allows you to provide your own domain (e.g. developers.yourdomain.com).

Hope that helps.
