You have to set your apache configuration to point to manage folder as your web root. Below is the apache configuration you can add to your vhosts file.

<VirtualHost *:1000>
ServerAdmin "webmaster@api.com"
DocumentRoot "/var/www/html/manage"
ServerName local.myapiapp.com
<Directory "/var/www/html/manage">
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride All
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.1
</Directory>

Additionaly, you can also add local.myapiapp.com to /etc/hosts file. Then go to browser and put in local.myapiapp.com in the address bar. It will point the root directory ie manage.
