Managing backends with Kusion Server
When using Kusion server, backends are managed via the /api/v1/backends
API. You can either access the APIs directly or if you have the Dev Portal enabled (--dev-portal-enabled
, default to true), backends can be also managed via the portal. The backend configurations are also stored in the database when using Kusion server.
APIs
The APIs to manage backends can be found in the swagger docs under {server-endpoint}/docs/index.html#/backend
