Web Services

The WebServer makes its data available via the web services. Each directory of the WebServer is a Web service. Each web service has its own configuration.

The Default Web Service has a special configuration for the intranet address request of the MetaDirectory. The other Web service settings allow the configuration of the data source and the result presentation. This allows the WebServer to use different datasets on different pages.

By default, only the "Default" service is active. When the other services are set up, an LDAP node is automatically created with the recommended search and result settings.

XML pages are also available in addition to HTML pages. Templates have been supplied for the following web services:

Service Name Path Description
Default /index.html Standard access via web browser
cell /mobile/index.html Address book for mobile devices.
