Procedure

  1. Sign in to the Boomi Cloud API Management (Control Center) dashboard.

  2. Click API Packages on the Get Started page or navigate to Design > Packages. This opens Manage your APIs with API Packages page.

  3. On the Manage your APIs with API Packages page, in the Name column, select the API Package link from the list. This opens the Plans: <your api package name> page.
