Describe the bug
The wiki for versioning policies explicitly states that
Sunset policies do not have to have a date. The following scenarios are supported:
-Define a sunset policy by API name and version
-Define a sunset policy by API name for any version
-Define a sunset policy by API version for any API
Based on the last item in that list, I assumed that I should be able to create a sunset policy for a specific API version, regardless of the API name, so this is what I did:
services.AddApiVersioning(options =>
{
options.ReportApiVersions = true;
options.Policies.Sunset(new ApiVersion(3)).Effective(2025, 1, 1);
options.Policies.Sunset(new ApiVersion(4)).Effective(2025, 12, 1);
})
I can confirm that the above works well because responses for API v3 now include Sunset Mon, 01 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT HTTP header.
However, when trying to access the sunset policy from the ApiExplorer APIs (i.e. bestMatch.Properties.TryGetValue(typeof(SunsetPolicy))) it returns null
Digging into the code for VersionedApiDescriptionProvider, I noticed that it uses ISunsetPolicyManagerExtensions.TryResolvePolicy to try to obtain the SunsetPolicy based on the API name and version and that method is returning null in my scenario. The reason it returns null is because it tries to find the policy using name AND version and, as shown above, my sunset policies do not have a name associated with them - they should apply to any API name as described on the wiki.
Notice that this behavior is different than what DefaultApiVersionReporter does. That class, who is responsible for writing the Sunset HTTP response header, uses a different strategy to obtain the SunsetPolicy for a given API name and version: first it tries to get a policy based on the name AND version provided, if it can't find one then it tries to find a policy based on the name only, if it still can't find a policy it then tries to find a policy based on the version only.
My assumption is that VersionedApiDescriptionProvider should use the same strategy as DefaultApiVersionReporter to find a suitable SunsetPolicy.
