Hi,
I'm installing a new PI web API into a server 2012 R2, this server is in a workgroup and not in a domain. Reading the WE API user guide, I saw some steps where is necessary define user from domain an so on( set the URL, etc). My question, If this server is not a domain the web API doesn't work properly?
Regards.
Hi Eugene,
I installed the PI web API 2015 and My PI server is 2012. So I have some doubts. I was reading the PI web API user guide steps for installation I did the typical installation and can connect to my AF server steps 1 to 8, after that jump to step 16 (ready to install pi web api and finish the process).
My doubt is I can't create a URL for web api, How could I create it or what is way to start to work?.
Regards.
Hi Jose,
The URL is automatically created for you after the installation. It is located at
Yes. Using localhost is ok too if you are accessing it from the same machine.
Hi Jose,
According to what I know, PI Web API 2015 is the only version currently that supports workgroup environment. So if you want to use PI Web API in workgroup, you will need to use this version. From the release notes:
Indexed Search crawler has been updated to support PI Server 2015, and to support installation on a workgroup-joined computer.
