- **[Bring APIs into API Catalog](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.api_catalog_bring_apis_into.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    You can bring APIs into your API catalog from several sources.
- **[View APIs in API Catalog](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.api_catalog_view_apis.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    After you bring APIs into your API catalog, view and search the list views. Use your catalog as a central place to find APIs and actions to use in Salesforce.
- **[Create and Manage Connections for Your APIs](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.api_catalog_create_connections_for_apis.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    Create connections to authorize the use of actions you activate for MuleSoft APIs and HTTP callouts in Salesforce. You create connections for other external API sources from outside of API Catalog, and then you can view the connections from the catalog.
- **[Activate API Actions to Use in Salesforce](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.api_catalog_activate_api_actions.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    You can activate actions to use in your automations, such as flows, agent actions, and Apex code.
- **[Remove APIs from API Catalog](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.api_catalog_remove_apis.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    You can remove entire APIs from API Catalog for all supported sources. You can also remove specific MuleSoft API versions. Keep your catalog current to use the latest APIs, including their associated actions.
- **[Examples of Using API Actions in Salesforce](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.api_catalog_examples_of_using_api_actions.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    After you sync your APIs in API Catalog and activate operations as actions, use them in agents, flows, and Apex code.
- **[Deploy API Catalog Data Using Change Sets](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=platform.api_catalog_package_and_promote.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    After you create, test, and debug your API Catalog configuration in a sandbox, use a change set to send the catalog and its associated dependencies, such as external services entries and named credentials, to production when you’re ready to deploy.
