Examples

Example-1: This data model imports contract CON1 defined in Tenant DEF to enable tenant ABC to consume it. This mechanism allows for controlled sharing of policies and communication rules across tenant boundaries while maintaining tenant isolation. The consumer tenant’s Endpoint Groups (EPGs) can then consume the imported contract by adding it as a consumed contract interface.

apic:
  tenants:
    - name: ABC
      imported_contracts:
        - name: IMPORT-CON1
          tenant: DEF
          contract: CON1
