The Amplify Agents SDK provides APIs and utilities that developers can use to build Golang based applications to discover APIs hosted on remote API Gateway (for e.g. AWS, Azure, Axway API Manager etc.) and publish their representation in Amplify Central as API server resources. The Amplify Agents SDK can also be used to build applications that can monitor traffic events (for discovered or undiscovered APIs) and publish them to Amplify Central API Observer.
The Amplify Agents SDK helps in reducing complexity in implementing against the direct Amplify Central REST API interface and hides low level plumbing to provide discovery and traceability related features.
The Amplify Agents SDK is supported under Axway support policy.
Make sure you have Go installed and then use the following command to install the Amplify Agents SDK
go install github.com/Axway/agent-sdk/

Getting started to build discovery agent
Getting started to build traceability agent
The developers can use the stubs packaged as zip file to build agents using the Amplify Agents SDK. The zip files contains code for sample discovery and traceability agent respectively, build scripts and instructions in README.md to make modifications to implement their own agents.
