I wanted to secure my microservices built in api connect using Oauth for that i need to use datapower as authorization server.
Is there any step by step document/example to configure API connect to use Datapower Gateway API gateway.
Any help will be appreciated.

Using the API Designer from API Connect, you can create OAuth-based security for your microservice app that uses DataPower as the OAuth provider. Are you familiar with the API Designer and the API Connect toolkit?

OAuth 2.0 is supported by the Micro Gateway only from version 5.0.3 and onwards but as you have DataPower you are fine. The interface/GUI is much better though in later versions of v5.
Did you see this: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSFS6T/com.ibm.apic.toolkit.doc/tutorial_apionprem_security_OAuth.html
Check out Lab 4 here: https://github.com/ibm-apiconnect/pot-onprem-docs/tree/master/lab-guide
The Lab software/setup is also found in that GitHub account!

thanks for the help but the problem was in the initial configuration of DataPower. just installed and configured DataPower again and it worked. – Sanket K. Jun 19 '17 at 14:06
Reinstalling and Configuring DataPower worked for me it concludes that there was a problem with initial configurations.
