Hi,
Is it possible to access the information from OpenEdge Explorer (AppServer connection ifnormation/status, agent pool lists, etc) via an API, rather than trying to screenscrape? We are still on Classic AppServer and WebSpeed, we haven't yet moved to PASOE.
I recall something about this being presented during a conference - knowing our luck it's only on PASOE.
Cheers,
Daniel B.
Some of it is available. It isn't documented publicly though. But quite a bit of OEM/OEE functionality is available through a REST API.
Start here:
PM me if you want details on any particular item listed there.
Well, there is no API for that on the classic AppServer AFAIK. The only thing I can come up with is write a .p which runs asbman, parse the result and pass that back to the client. If you "sneak preview" the output of PASOE you may format your output like the PASOE JSON you have something portable as well (at least that's the theory).

For PASOE, there is a full JMX, and a full REST API, fully documented accessible through the /oemanager web application.
11.7.4 includes a Swagger UI set of docs to explore and test the REST API for PASOE on your own server. I'm not sure, but I think you would have access to this API even if you just migrated your Webspeed projects to a PASOE Web-type project (as opposed to converting them to REST services). You may want to look at upgrading for this and a number of other reasons. We have had our problems during the migration, but feel that it has been worth it for a number of reasons.
Thanks [mention:89fc5d694d9c44e28801ce6a5d07a449:e9ed411860ed4f2ba0265705b8793d05] - that's exactly what we are after. That will hold us over until we can move to PASOE (which unfortunately for us, also involves a move from 32- to 64-bit).
