1.1. Try out
In order to try out APIs, you need to be logged in to the portal (please register and/or sign in). Once logged in, you need to subscribe to the API product that contains the API you would like to try out. To do so, navigate to the API Products section. Try out is available for all API Products that show a "Subscriptions and API Reference" link. Follow that link for the respective API product you would like to subscribe to. Subscribe to the API product by entering a product subscription name and by pressing the "Subscribe" button. The portal then takes you to your User Profile page where you can view all of your subscriptions.
You have two options to try out an API:
Directly from within Developer Portal
Go back to the respective API Product and select the API resource you would like to try out. Press the Try it button and fill in request parameters into the form.From any desired client application
Note down the subscription key of the subscription to the API product that you would like to try out. Go to the API product, open the respective API resource and copy the displayed URL to call the API from your client application or browser. The subscription key needs to be passed as header parameter "Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key".
Note: you need to pass at least all required parameters as defined in the definition of the respective API.
Try out responses return static mock data, independent from the request parameters you provide.
