Hi All,

I have a usecase where I have 2 or more TargetEnd Points.

In PostMan When I’m sending request as content type = application/json , Then it must hit the target 1.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Name>
 <FName>Govind</FName>
 <Lname>Verma</Lname>
 <City>Ranchi</City>
</Name>

In PostMan When I’m sending request as content type = application/xml , Then it must hit the target 2.

{"Name":{"FName":"Govind","Lname":"Verma","City":"Ranchi"}}

Could someone please help me or any advice?

Thanks and Regards

Govind Verma

Hi @Govind Verma You need a route rule!

Check it out here-> Route rules

Make the condition for the route based on the content type header. Probably you should also make that header required in the proxy preflow and confirm its xml or json.

Feel free to ping back with any clarification needed.

Otherwise, if this answered your question, please accept to close it out.

Hi @Govind Verma, You can do using route rule with proper condition and multiple target endpoints, another way is to use scripting and decide target dynamically using java script.

Hi Govind as said by Robert, the easiest way is to use RouteRules,

https://docs.apigee.com/api-platform/fundamentals/understanding-routes

Let’s say, you have two Target endpoints - JSONEndpoint & XMLEndpoint

<RouteRule name="MyRoute">
  <Condition>request.header.Content-Type= "application/json"</Condition>
  <TargetEndpoint>JSONEndpoint</TargetEndpoint>
</RouteRule>
<RouteRule name="default">
 <TargetEndpoint>XMLEndpoint</TargetEndpoint>
</RouteRule>

The above route rules will route to XMLEndpoint when the header is anything other than application/json
