Ability to organize zCEE APIs/Services in folders(zOS Explorer view) Merged

zCEE artifacts (services and apis) are today in a flat structure when browsing through the zOS Explorer view. We will need to be able to organise the apis & services in folders to be able to find stuff when we have more apis and services to manage/develop.

This should preferably not affect the swagger or api path. It is more from an administrative perspective for different areas/systems/teams to organize the api:s around.

    Thank you for raising this requirement. It is being closed as a duplicate of existing RFE 114793
    http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/rfe/execute?use_case=viewChangeRequest&CR_ID=114793

    Although RFE 114793 is declined at this time, we are interesting in the challenges that come managing large numbers of APIs and teams and would prefer that the votes and comments on this topic are directed to a single RFE to aid our research and planning.

    In terms of addressing these challenges we are looking at solutions (beyond just multiple folders) but they will require careful design consideration and may take some time to deliver. We are currently seeking participation in our design program to help us develop our initial designs. If you are interested in joining us on this journey to shape the delivery of capability, please sign up to the Z Client Feedback program via the link below, indicating your interest in z/OS Connect EE:
