Secure Connector API endpoint not in VCAP_SERVICES?

I have created an API via basic secure connector (SOAP). The API works but I am wondering why I can't retrieve the endpoint URL from VCAP_SERVICES. Anything I miss here?

Are you using the secure connector portion of the Cloud Integration service in Bluemix? You might want to try the Secure Gateway service, which is newer and is basically just the secure connector as a standalone service without the rest of Cloud Integration.

"Reaching enterprise backend with Bluemix Secure Gateway via console" explains how to set up a Secure Gateway instance. When you create a destination, that creates an integration.ibmcloud.com URL that your app can then use to connect to your destination via the gateway. The gateway is a proxy, preserving the interface, so the cloud host URL has the same API as the destination host.
