# Microsoft Azure API Management **Canonical:** https://apis.io/providers/microsoft-azure-api-management/ **Website:** https://azure.microsoft.com/products/api-management/ **APIs profiled:** 71 Microsoft Azure API Management is a hybrid, multicloud management platform for APIs across all environments. It is composed of an API gateway (data plane), a management plane, and a developer portal, and supports the complete API lifecycle for publishing, securing, monitoring, and transforming APIs for external, partner, and internal developers. It now includes an AI gateway for governing OpenAI Chat Completions, OpenAI Responses, Anthropic Messages, Microsoft Foundry models, Amazon Bedrock, MCP servers exposed from REST APIs or proxied from external MCP backends, and A2A agent APIs - with token rate limiting, semantic caching, content safety, backend load balancing, circuit breakers, and token emission to Application Insights. It pairs with Azure API Center for design-time inventory, governance, and discovery. ## Kin Score — 57.0 / 100 (strong) Scored 2026-08-20 under rubric 0.12.0.
