The Internet is essential to start MIDAS OPEN API because it was developed based on a Web-based API environment.
Troubleshooting Connectivity Issues Between MIDAS CIVIL NX and Server
When encountering connectivity issues between the product and the server.
- Check Server Status
- Remove the port number and product-specific information from the baseURL.
- Send a REST API request using the GET method.
- Verify that the request status displays as 200.
- Check Local Network Connectivity.
- Confirm stable connectivity within the network.
- Review Company Firewall Policies. MIDAS Open API connects the external networks, and connection issues might arise due to firewall settings.
- Retry after refreshing MAPI-Key.
If the connection still doesn't work despite these checks, please get in touch with MIDAS for more help.
Verifying Server Connection Before Requesting Multiple APIs
