I am new to Tky and I am using the cloud version of Tyk. Still trying to understand how everything works. According to the Tyk document, we have two API sets: the REST API and the Dashboard API. I have two questions here on them:
Should we use the REST API with the Gateway server and use the Dashboard API with the dashboard?
Is there any way we could use the REST API with the cloud Tyk server?
You can;t use the Gateway REST API at all with cloud, if you did want to use it you would need to be on our Hybrid plan and then you can access the local gateway.
The Dashboard API provides all the same or similar endpoints as the gateway API, it just has a more granular and complex security system so you would only integrate with the dashboard API.
