# API Experience Hub Overview

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

API Experience Hub provides a unified portal for discovering and consuming APIs and AI agents. You
can use it as an internal user, a partner, or an external developer.

Service providers can share, promote, and engage with their developer community. Developers and
partners can find, explore, and consume services designed anywhere from a single place.

API Experience Hub is the next-generation evolution of API Community Manager for creating and
managing portals. The portal administrator can use out-of-the-box templates to build developer
portals in minutes and publish services like agents, APIs, LLMs, and MCP servers from Anypoint
Exchange to any audience. Anypoint Platform fully manages the portal deployment, administration, and
the catalog and user management options so you don’t need any Salesforce knowledge to start.

API Experience Hub provides the following advantages for:

**Portal administrators**:

- Set up portals quickly and easily

- Onboard services and setting version visibility

- Manage users and access requests from guest users

- Preview and iterate on the portal

- Perform advanced customizations using Salesforce Experience Builder

- Enable Chatter Feed tracking to engage with your portal community

- Use Google Analytics to gain valuable insights into how consumers are using your services and
  portal

**Developers**:

- Self-service experience to discover services and build applications

- Request access to an instance to register a client application

- Interactive documentation to understand how to use and integrate services

- Customized and connected hub to interact with services

- Collaborate with members of the portal community

## Steps to Create a Portal

An administrator can create a custom portal using these steps:

1.  Connect to a Salesforce instance.

    The instance can be a new or existing Salesforce organization. To connect, specify the
    environment type and enter the custom Salesforce domain if you have one, log in, allow the
    permissions, and confirm the account.

2.  Set up your portal.

    Once you connect to Salesforce, choose how to set up the portal and style the portal’s out of
    the box pages with logos, fonts, color schemes, and more.

3.  Manage your portal.

    Manage the catalog by adding services from Exchange and setting the visibility for the versions.
    Manage users by approving access requests from guest users.

4.  Publish the portal.

    Publish the portal to make it available to your community.

## Portal Pages

Each API Experience Hub portal includes a Home, Services page, and an Service Details page. The
portal administrator can customize each page to fit the organization’s needs. For more information,
see [Setting Up the Portal](https://docs.mulesoft.com/api-experience-hub/setting-up-the-api-portal).

The portal includes these template pages:

- Home

  The Home page includes the banner image, portal title, Carousel, and navigation to services by
  type and serves as the landing page of the portal. The Carousel offers consumers a preview of the
  most recent services added to the portal. Each card contains the service name, icon, type, and
  description. When selected, developers can view all the information about a service on the Service
  Details page.

- Services

  The Services page contains a catalog of all the services in the portal. Developers can search and
  filter the catalog. When selected, each card in the catalog shows the Service Details page.

- Service Details

  The Service Details page shows the metadata about the service, including the name, description,
  type, version, lifecycle states, and the email of the contact for the service. The details page
  includes the overview and the service documentation. The overview panel reflects the overview page
  created by the admin of the service in Anypoint Exchange. The documentation panel includes an
  interactive console for developers to read the service documentation and test the service.
  Developers can read the summary, methods, endpoints, and authorization sections as defined in the
  API specification.

## Product Integration

API Experience Hub is integrated with the following products:

- Anypoint Exchange

  Exchange is a catalog of reusable assets such as services, policies, agents, APIs, LLMs, and MCP
  servers, API spec fragments, API groups, templates, examples, custom assets, and integration
  assets such as connectors. Within API Experience Hub, portal admins can curate their portals by
  importing services from Exchange. For more information, see the
  [Anypoint Exchange](https://docs.mulesoft.com/exchange/).

  API Experience Hub is powered by Salesforce Experience Cloud and provides customization and
