I’m trying to deploy a proxy with apigeetool but I got “Error: Invalid target reference default in…”. Can you help me to solve it?

I found the answer. targets directory was needed instead of resources directory.

└── apiproxy

    ├── deploy-proxy-example.xml

    ├── policies

    ├── proxies

    │   └── default.xml

    └── targets

        └── default.xml
