Add an API Server

After defining a system-level API adapter, you can create an instance of this adapter for a domain, that is, an API Server.

An API Server is related to a real third-party system which provides API access and defines the endpoint and credentials (such as username and password) to access the third-party system via API.

1. Log in to the Domain Management page.
2. In the Domain Management page, click the icon in the upper-left corner of the page and select API Server Manager.
   
3. On the API Server Manager tab, click Add.
4. Enter the server name and the description.
5. In the API Source Type field, select the API adapter.
6. In the Endpoint field, enter the third-party API service address.
7. Enter the username and password to access the third-party API server.
8. Select a Front Server, and click Test to check the connection.
   
9. Click OK.
   

   Tip: You can export the full data of either all the devices or only the interested devices (by using search function) managed by each API server.
