Using a Browser to Test the Web Service
As described above, if FTSecurity has not been enabled, it will be possible to access the InfoPlatform web service from a browser using the following URL.
NOTE:
If FTSecurity has been enabled (which it is by the default installation), User will not be able to access the web services using a browser. All Web Service calls will need to include header fields containing a user name and password associated with a user permitted to access the web service. Use a tool such as Postman to do this.
The user can use the same API calls that are described above for Postman.
Enter the following URL in the address bar.
https://localhost:12345/api/
NOTE:
Modify the port value if it is changed in the configuration file.
