In Anypoint Exchange, policies are the asset type that represents configuration modules extending the functionality of an API and enforcing capabilities such as security. Policies can be applied to APIs to control access, apply throttling, manage security, and other aspects that modify or extend the behavior of APIs.

Rulesets, REST APIs, and connectors serve different purposes within the Anypoint Platform. Rulesets are used for validation or routing decisions. REST APIs define the endpoints and methods for API interactions, and connectors enable connectivity to various systems and services. Only policies are specifically designed to enforce additional capabilities on APIs.
