WE have our REST services deployed using bluemix container groups. Can some one tell me how to configure access to these APIs through Bluemix API Connect? I Created product, catalog. Also imported my swagger in catalog. I can see the APIs listed. but not able to access them. Can someone guide?

Since you've already created a product, I'll assume that you've already added your API(s) to that product. If not, do that now.

Once you've done that, look for the Stage menu (the little "Cloud with an up arrow" icon) in the upper-right-hand corner of the product detail page. From the corresponding menu, select the catalog you want to stage the product to.

After that completes successfully, navigate to the API Connect dashboard and click on the catalog to which you just staged the product. At this point, you should see the product and its status will be listed as "Staged."

Click the overflow menu (three dots) on the right-hand side of the product row and select "Publish" from the resulting menu. You can likely accept any default visibility settings. Once that operation completes, the API will now be accessible via the catalog's gateway URL + API base path. (You can find this in the Catalog settings -> Endpoint panel.)

For more information on publishing APIs, see this documentation: https://console.bluemix.net/docs/services/apiconnect/apic_006.html#apic_010

Or if you want to use the CLI: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSFS6T/com.ibm.apic.toolkit.doc/capim-toolkit-cli-publish-apis.html#concept_nll_3ry_xv__publish_apis

on Bluemix to call your api , you need to "publish" your product to a portal. First of all prepare your Portal: Go to Dashboard -- > Your Catalog -- > Settings -- > Enable Portal and select Portal-Delegated-User-Registry.

After some time , you will be accessing your portal . Subscribe new user through that portal. Portal GUI is very helpful. You will be able to learn by yourself how to call your API.

Good luck!
