Mock response

APPLIES TO: All API Management tiers

The mock-response policy, as the name implies, is used to mock APIs and operations. It cancels normal pipeline execution and returns a mocked response to the caller. The policy always tries to return responses of highest fidelity. It prefers response content examples, when available. It generates sample responses from schemas, when schemas are provided and examples aren't. If neither examples or schemas are found, responses with no content are returned.

Note

Set the policy's elements and child elements in the order provided in the policy statement. Learn more about how to set or edit API Management policies.
