Update Dashboard Select API list

[bajiat]

Update the Dashboard Select API list so that it contains only APIs connected to a proxy.

Definition of done

• APIs list contains only APIs connected to a proxy
  • API manager can see all APIs owned by him/her that are connected to a proxy. Optionally, the ones that are not connected to a proxy can be listed, but it should not be possible to select them.
  • Apinf admin can see all APIs connected to a proxy in the platform.

@frenchbread Would you be able to finish this before the new sprint starts or should I move this to planning column for sprint 31?

@frenchbread This issue seems to be in progress, but does not have any PR associated to it. Can you inform us about the status? Thanks!

@bajiat I have not pushed the changes yet.

Simply populate APIs to selecbox did not work, since proxyBackends (endpoint data) do not have helpers for permission check attached. So it's open question how to do that? (Fetching related API backend and checking permissions by created_by field?)

Also what URL should be used for API calls? I've tried the old way (https://<host>/api-umbrella/<frontend-prefix>?api_key=<api_key>) to generate sample analytics data, and did not get any response.

We can rely on the Apis.currentUserCanEdit() helper for the permissions check. In effect, a proxy backend seems to share the permissions with the API, so we don't need to duplicate the code.

You will still make calls to the same URL pattern.

The problem may be that the API Backend has not been added to API Umbrella. As it stands, 'ProxyBackends' are currently only stored in Apinf, with work planned to also save them in API Umbrella.
