Hi all,
We’re are going to integrate Google Maps into our Dashboards/Low-Code Apps using the Maps visualization. Based on Google’s documentation, the Google Maps Platform services require both inbound and outbound traffic over ports 80 (HTTP) and 443 (HTTPS).
In DataMiner, does this integration require both inbound and outbound traffic to be allowed through the firewall? Or is outbound traffic from the DataMiner agent sufficient for the map components to function correctly?
Appreciate any insights or clarifications. Thanks!
Hi Jeeva,
The only case where port 80 or 443 should be accessible to use the maps component, is when implementing an 'Open overlay' action that uses a private overlay. You can read more about this in our docs. Other than that, the process to access the maps api is run entirely in the webbrowser, so no further action is required.
Kind regards,
Thibault

Hi Jeeva. Since google needs to be able to access the file specified in the docs, both inbound and outbound traffiec are required in this case
Hi Thibault,
Thank you for your response.
Could you please provide more information on the private overlay?
Our customer is indeed planning to use overlay files (KML). In this case, is both inbound and outbound traffic required, or is outbound traffic sufficient?
