Configuring URL (Mandatory Step)

To configure the end point details:

1. Under API Type, click the End Point Details tab, and the application displays the boxes and lists to enter the end point details.
2. Under URL Details, find the URL box.

3. Right to the URL box, click the plus icon (), and the Add Variable dialog box opens.
4. On the Add Variable dialog box, in the Variable Name box, enter the named-variable (for example: – URL_SERVICE).

Note: – The named variable consists of the actual configuration values. By using the named variables, the vConnect module processes the API request.

5. Click the Variable Scope list and then select one of the following values:
   • Server Only: – Select this option if the request is supposed to be initiated from the web application.
   • Server and Mobile: – Select this option if the request is supposed to be initiated from the web application and mobile app.
6. Click the Variable Declaration Source list and then select one of the following values:
   • Cloud: – The Variable Declaration Source list by default displays this value. Select this value to define the variable at the cloud level. The application request will access the end-point URL in the cloud environment.
   • VRT: – If you select this option, the application request accesses the end-point URL at the runtime.
7. In the Sand_box box or <<environment_name>> box, enter the end point URL where the vConnect module posts the API request.
8. After you enter the URL details, click Submit, and the application displays the message: “Variable Created Successfully.“

9. Click the URL box and then select the recently created named-variable and then click Save, and the end point URL is successfully configured.

Note:- If you want to use the encoded URL string to post the API request, click the Is URL Encoded check box. This feature converts the Non-ASCII characters into the format that can be transmitted over Internet.
