Response Filters

Response Filters are created to get customized responses from specific methods. Filtering is the process of excluding elements from the responses before being returned to the calling developers. The elements that are selected from a sample response schema for a particular method are excluded from the responses. Filters are applied when they are added to methods while defining a Plan.

Response filters will only work if the Content-Type header is set to application/json (for JSON responses) or application/xml (for XML responses).

note

Response Filters are available only in the Advanced-Packager-enabled Portals. Please contact API Management Support for more information.
