Customizing the Developer Portal

Site Configuration

The Developer Portal is based on a fork of the Paperbits Web framework and is enriched with Azure API Management-specific features. The fork resides at https://github.com/Azure/api-management-developer-portal.

It is possible to self-host and manage your own Developer Portal outside of an Azure API Management instance. This is an advanced option, which allows you to edit the portal’s codebase and extend the provided core functionality. This is documented at https://github.com/Azure/api-management-developer-portal/wiki and https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/api-management/api-management-howto-developer-portal.

Before you make your portal available to visitors, you should personalize the automatically-generated content. Recommended changes include the layouts, styles, and the content of the home page. This is documented at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/api-management/api-management-howto-developer-portal-customize.

Email Configuration

The templates for the email notifications are managed from the Azure Management Portal, directly on the blade’s resource menu.
