A regular Azure API Management service update was started on July 8, 2020\. It includes the following new features, bug fixes, and changes, along with other improvements.
**New**
* API Management can now access storage accounts as a trusted Microsoft service. [An example of policy using this feature is located on GitHub. ![](https://azurecomcdn.azureedge.net/mediahandler/acomblog/updates/UpdatesV2/blog/22268971-76ec-40e1-9ca2-890b6850038e.png)](https://github.com/Azure/api-management-policy-snippets/blob/master/examples/Authenticate%20using%20Managed%20Identity%20to%20access%20Storage%20Account.xml)
* Consumption tier services can now be created in five additional regions: West Central US, South Central US, France Central, Germany West Central, and Switzerland North.
* Consumption tier services now emit metrics to Azure Monitor, with the exception of Event Hub and Capacity metrics. The Capacity metric won't be available in the Consumption tier.
* Consumption tier services can now be moved to a different Azure subscription or resource group.
* Response of the Network Status API call now includes connectivity information for the global.metrics.nsatc.net monitoring endpoint.
* The PUT Subscription API call now accepts the appType query parameter in API versions 2018-06-01-preview or later. The value of the query parameter controls destination of the link included in the subscription confirmation email sent to a user - portal (default) results in a link pointing to the legacy developer portal, while developerPortal results in a link pointing to the new developer portal.
* If API Management is configured to use a KeyVault-based SSL/TLS certificate, Activity Logs now include logs for the start of certificate auto-refresh process.
**Fixed**
* List of header names specified for logging can't contain duplicate header names.
**Changed**
* If sign-in delegation is configured, user is redirected to the URL specified in the returnUrl query parameter after a successful sign-in in the developer portal (managed version).
It may take over a week for your API Management service to receive the update. The developer portal follows an independent release lifecycle and the [per-release change log is available on GitHub](https://aka.ms/apimdevportal/releases).
