A

If your API operation is not calling the backend service, you need to view the policy of the API operation to see why backend service is not called.

1. Go to the publisher dashboard of the API Management Service.

2. Select "First API" in the API list.

3. Select "Add new user" in the operation list. You see the "Design" tab open.

4. Click the "Edit" icon in the "Backend" section. You see backend processing logic displayed.

5. Click "Code View". You see the policy code displayed:

<policies>
    <inbound>
        <base />
    </inbound>
    <backend>
        <base />
    </backend>
    <outbound>
        <base />
    </outbound>
    <on-error>
        <base />
    </on-error>
</policies>
