Requirement Analysis: The organization needs to send email alerts to the internal operations team whenever a policy applied to an API instance is deleted in the CloudHub runtime plane.

Solution: The most effective approach is to implement a new Mule application that uses the Audit Log REST API to detect when a policy is deleted and then sends an email using the SMTP connector.

Implementation Steps:

Access Audit Logs:

Use the Anypoint Platform's Audit Log REST API to monitor and detect policy deletion events.

Example of accessing the Audit Log REST API:

GET /accounts/api/v2/organizations/{orgId}/audit-logs

This endpoint will provide logs, including events related to policy deletions.

Create Email Notification Application:

Create a Mule application that periodically polls the Audit Log REST API to check for policy deletion events.

Use the SMTP connector to send email notifications to the operations team.

Example Mule flow:

Policy deletion detected: #[payload]

Scheduler: Configures the application to check the audit logs at regular intervals (e.g., every minute).

HTTP Request: Makes a GET request to the Audit Log REST API to fetch the logs.

Choice Router: Checks if the payload contains a policy deletion event.

SMTP Connector: Sends an email to the operations team with details about the policy deletion.

Advantages:

Automation: Automates the detection of policy deletions and the notification process, reducing manual monitoring efforts.

Timeliness: Ensures the operations team is promptly informed of any policy deletions, enabling them to take immediate action if necessary.
