Apigee's "Companies" (ie. Teams) feature is a plugin for the Drupal portal with tie-ins to the API Gateway backend. It will allow developers to create Teams, and associate the applications they create with their Teams, rather than themselves.
On an annual basis we would like to review the accounts we have in the system in order to remove accounts that should no longer be active and reduce our security risk profile. To do this we will want to check what accounts are not in active use or their owners are no longer affiliated with the University.
Better integrate the API security model with the Campus IdM Team's security model. Look at creating service accounts at the campus level and managing their access through the gateway within https://developer.ucsb.edu.
An automated task which will monitor access requests from users to auto-approve particular APIs and send Access Request information about restricted APIs.

Client Library Reference Architecture
Build a client library that demonstrates how to use the API Key and UCSB Net ID/password combination to retrieve data. This project should be hosted in Github and if possible, a build should be hosted on a public repository (nuget).
An extension to drupal which will look at an new account creation. Given a simple set of rules some account requests should be able to be auto-denied. Maybe some can also be auto approved.

Principles
(We don't always achieve these, but this is what we're shooting for)
Easy to Find APIs
Provide an easy and quick to use Developer Portal for finding APIs and the data they provide. In order for APIs to be useful, people need to use them and the first step to do that is make them easily found through search engines and clear documentation.
