Is it possible to define a User-Defined API accessible via a dashboard gateway ?
if yes which files need to be copy onthe dashboard gw server ?

Like Thomas answered, this does not work immediately on a Dashboards Gateway, but with some additional configuration in IIS it can be done. In the URL Rewrite module in IIS on the gateway web server, you can add a rule that forwards the request to the DMA server.

Hi Bernard, from what I can find on the concept of the Dashboard Gateway, I do not believe this to be capable of providing a way to interact with User-Defined APIs. At least, not in the same way as for the legacy Dashboards. Using IIS on another agent, you probably could forward API requests to the DMA if that is what you would need.

Hi Bernard, I don’t know myself about Dashboard Gateway, but I know it’s also possible to make User Defined APIs available via dataminer.services, see the ‘Note’ here: https://docs.dataminer.services/user-guide/Advanced_Modules/User-Defined_APIs/UD_APIs_Triggering_an_API.html#url . Wkr
