  title: Apache APISIX Admin Consumer Groups Schema API

It allows management of routes, services, upstreams, consumers, SSL certificates, global rules, plugin configurations, consumer groups, secrets, and more. By default, the Admin API listens on port 9180 and requires API key authentication via the X-API-KEY header.
