Tutorials do not tie well together #16

Closed rvennam closed 3 years ago

rvennam commented 6 years ago

I want to create a loopback api, and then manage/secure/rate-limit that API using API Connect.

I was off to a great start using https://console.bluemix.net/docs/services/apiconnect/tutorials/tut_create_api_node.html#creating-an-api-in-node-js

But the tutorial ends after testing the API...with Next Steps pointing to "Manage a REST service or Manage a SOAP service"

These Next Steps tutorials do not continue where this ended. Key information is missing: 1) How do I deploy the application (to IBM Cloud) that I just created using api loopback? 2) What is and where can I get the OpenAPI file for the loopback application I created?

The tut_create_api_node tutorial needs this information before directing the user to tut_import_openapi_rest_bm

At a minimum, it should link to this guide in the Next Steps: https://developer.ibm.com/apiconnect/getting-started/publish-your-api-to-bluemix/
