Register Services Manually

Register a service to add it to your portfolio when you already have the metadata, specification, endpoint, or card required in Enhanced Experience, without running a provider scan. Start from Home or from the catalog for that service type in Portfolio. Completed registrations appear in the matching catalog.

To learn how manual registration relates to provider connections, see Adding Services to Your Portfolio.

Before You Begin

Before getting started, make sure you have:

  • An Anypoint Platform account.

  • One of these permissions:

    • Exchange: Exchange Contributor

    • Exchange: Exchange Administrator

    • Exchange: Exchange Creator

    For more information, see Enhanced Experience Permissions.

Get Started

  • Home

    Open Add Services, select the service type, then, if it is available, select manual registration .

  • Portfolio

    Open the Agents, MCP Servers, LLM Proxies, or APIs catalog, use the add control for that type (for example Add API), and select Register Manually.

To set up a gateway, select Add Gateway to open gateway setup in Anypoint Platform. Navigation labels can vary by catalog, enabled features, and release.

Agents

Register an agent by uploading an agent card file for an A2A or non-A2A agent.

Manual registration does not support A2A or non-A2A connection routes, and the system does not validate a connection before creating the agent.

MCP Servers

For MCP servers, define how the system reaches the server and validates runtime access:

  • By MCP URL — Connect over a URL and test the live server so tools and metadata can be discovered.

  • Upload Schema — Upload a schema and supply the details needed to register and test the server.

Successful registration stores the MCP server in the MCP Servers catalog.

LLM Proxies

LLM proxy registration has two parts: associate the proxy with a gateway and deployment context, then define routing (and any provider connections your flow requires). After setup is complete, the LLM proxy appears in the LLM Proxies catalog.

APIs

Add an API to the APIs catalog by registering it manually or by connecting to a provider.

  • Register manually – Upload a specification file to define a new API.

  • Connect to provider – Discover and import APIs from external platforms. See Create a Scanner for Provider Services.

Register an API Manually

When you register an API manually, you provide a specification file that defines the API structure, including endpoints, operations, and data types.

  1. In the navigation pane, select APIs.

  2. Click Add API.

  3. Select Register manually.

  4. Enter a name for the API.

  5. Select the API type.

  6. Upload the specification file.

  7. Click Create.

The experience supports multiple API types and specification formats:

  • REST APIs (OAS, RAML)

  • gRPC APIs (Proto files)

  • Async APIs (AsyncAPI specification)

Gateways

Manual gateway registration is not supported in Enhanced Experience.

To set up a gateway, select Add Gateway to open gateway setup in Anypoint Platform. == See Also
