# Azure API Center **Canonical:** https://apis.io/apis/microsoft-azure-api-management/azure-api-center/ **Provider:** Microsoft Azure API Management — https://apis.io/providers/microsoft-azure-api-management/ **Base URL:** https://management.azure.com/ **Documentation:** https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/api-center/overview Azure API Center is one of 71 APIs that [Microsoft Azure API Management](https://apis.io/providers/microsoft-azure-api-management/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include API Catalog, API Discovery, API Inventory, Governance, and MCP Registry. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation and an API reference. Azure API Center is the design-time governance and centralized discovery counterpart to Azure API Management. It enables organizations to track all of their APIs - regardless of type, lifecycle stage, or deployment location - along with version details, OpenAPI definitions, and metadata, for inventory, reuse, and governance. API Center registers APIs managed in Azure API Management and other gateways, supports linting and breaking-change detection in Visual Studio Code, and includes a private API Center portal and an MCP server registry. Customers with a linked API Management Standard, Standard v2, Premium, or Premium v2 instance can use the API Center Standard plan at no additional cost. ## Machine-readable artifacts (39) - **Documentation** — https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/api-center/overview -
