DSS REST API on GUI

hiroko.goto1

Hi,

This question is from Hitachi.

They are trying to programme REST API for DSS.

Can they export DSS GUI settings such as Report template/Schedules and import them for REST API?

To my understanding, they cannot do so, but their developer thought they should be able to.

Sorry for basic question, but can you pls advise?

Regards,

Hiroko

Hi Hiroko,

For Schedule extraction, the Report template, Schedule and Instrument List are stored in the server. They can be managed and accessed via either DSS GUI or REST API. REST API calls allow you to control the workflow just like you
would using the GUI. In other words, the API allows you to mimic the
web GUI. This means that the Report template, Schedule and Instrument List created by GUI can be used by REST API or vice versa.

Please see the GUI control calls: immediate extract tutorial for more information.

Hi Hiroko,

The REST API has functions to import and export the report template and schedules. Please see API calls ReportTemplate Import and Schedule Import.
