The REST API connection feature in DataTalk allows you to seamlessly fetch data from your API by following these steps:
Step 1: Configure API Connection
Specify the API URL (HOST) and set up the required authentication method. If your API server uses secure communication protocols, you can also upload the necessary certificates to ensure a secure connection.
Step 2: Query the API
Once the connection is configured, DataTalk will query the provided API URL and retrieve all available data from the endpoint.
Step 3: Select and Import Data
Review the retrieved data and select the specific items you want to integrate into your project. These selected items will be automatically imported into the tag database.
By using this feature, you can easily integrate external data sources via REST APIs and manage them within the system, ensuring efficient and centralized data handling.
