Setting up Policies

As a cloud administrator, you can use the Service Broker APIs to create policies with rules or parameters that you apply to deployments in Service Broker and Cloud Assembly.

Prerequisites for Creating Policies

All tasks for requesting a deployment from a catalog item share the following common prerequisites:

• Verify that you are at least an organization member in VMware vRealize Automation with both a Cloud Assembly administrator service role and a Service Broker administrator service role.
• Verify that you have an active access token. See Getting Your Authentication Token.
• Verify that the URL variable is assigned.

  url='https://appliance.domain.com'

• Verify that the Policies API version variable is assigned as in the following example.

  api_version='2020-08-25'

  If you choose not to assign a value to the apiVersion or to assign it to a different value, review the information in API versioning.

Any additional prerequisites are specified with the individual tasks.
