Deployment Error When Configuring API Autodiscovery

When you configure Mule Gateway for API autodiscovery, you might receive the following "failed to deploy artifact" error:

org.mule.runtime.deployment.model.api.DeploymentException: Failed to deploy artifact [accounts]
Caused by: org.mule.runtime.api.exception.MuleRuntimeException: org.mule.runtime.deployment.model.api.DeploymentInitException: PropertyNotFoundException: Couldn't find configuration property
value for key ${apiId} from properties provider Domain properties - within
resolver Deployment properties trying to process key apiId - within
resolver global-properties configuration attributes trying to process key apiId - within resolver environment properties provider trying to process key apiId - within resolver Deployment properties trying to process key apiId - within resolver External files trying to process key apiId - within resolver Deployment properties trying to process key apiId

Cause

This issue occurs if you did not add the apiId property in the config.properties file, and failed to modify the value for the apiId attribute in the api-gateway:autodiscovery element. The Autodiscovery process runs on a specific instance of API Manager. For that reason, you must specify a valid apiId of type long.

If you deployed a proxy application through API Manager or downloaded the auto-generated proxy, this setting is automatically configured.

Solution

To resolve this issue:

Navigate to the config.properties file and append the following property and value pair:
```
apiId=[your-specific-value]
```
In your <api-gateway:autodiscovery> element, set the apiID attribute to the apiId property in the config.properties file:
```
apiId=${apiId}
```
