Rather than routing requests to different API versions, the same requirement would be catered if we have one API but route requests to different back-ends, isn't it? This is how you would do it if so.
Say your application (back-end) context is /bookstore and has versions 1.0, 2.0, etc... You would define the endpoint of the api (an http endpoint) as *http://books.com/bookstore <http://books.com/bookstore>/{uri.var.appversion}* You would then define an extension sequence for the API which would contain the logic of getting the user's role(s) (probably from the JWT) and then decide on the app version to forward the request to and populate a property named *uri.var.appversion *with the app version Ex: <property name="uri.var.appversion" value="1.0"/> This would mean that your final endpoint would be *http://books.com/bookstore/1.0 <http://books.com/bookstore/1.0>* Now, the only problem I see here is defining an endpoint as *http://books.com/bookstore <http://books.com/bookstore>**/{uri.var.appversion} *from the Publisher UI. IIRC it does a url validation when saving the endpoint, hence the validation would fail. But this is something that can be fixed easily :). Thanks, NuwanD.
