xServer Internet 2 URLs

Post by Gerhard »

I would like to give the xLocation component of the xServer Internet 2 a try. Therefore I tried the following JavaScript/jQuery code:

Code: Select all

$.ajax({
    url:          'https://xserver2-europe-eu-test.cloud.ptvgroup.com/services/rest/XLocate/2.4/locations/Berlin',
    type:         'GET',
    cache:        false,
    timeout:      5000,
    beforeSend:   function (xhr) { xhr.setRequestHeader('Authorization', 'Basic ' + btoa('xtok:TOKEN')); },
    success:      function(result) { console.log(result); },
    error:        function(result) { console.log(result); },
});
Is it necessary to have the specific version 2.4 in the URL or is there also a possibility to have something like "latest v2"?

And is the domain xserver2-europe-eu-test.cloud.ptvgroup.com the correct way to go? I'm somehow confused by the "test" in the URL. Could you also tell me the correct URL for North America? (We have been using https://svc-eu-n.cloud.ptvgroup.com/ (Europe) and https://svc-na-n.cloud.ptvgroup.com/ (North America) for xServer Internet 1)

Hello Gerhard,

You can approach the xServer 2 modules by various different levels:
  • The latest version
  • The numbered version
  • The experimental version
List of the endpoints at https://xserver2-europe-eu-test.cloud.ptvgroup.com/dashboard/Default.htm#Administration/Services.htm%3FTocPath%3DAdministration%7C_____5
List of the endpoints at https://xserver2-europe-eu-test.cloud.ptvgroup.com/dashboard/Default.htm#Administration/Services.htm%3FTocPath%3DAdministration%7C_____5
So in the screenshot you can see the potential destination for geocoding on latest version:
https://xserver2-europe-eu-test.cloud.p ... cate?_wadl

Happy with that?

About the availability of xServer2 in combination with the US map (or other maps than europe):
This is a strategic question. I'll forward it to product management and ask them for an answer.

Thx in advance,

Hi Gerhard,

unfortunately no news regarding North America. We are focused on Europe Maps at the moment. NA will appear, but there is no exactly release date announced.

Hello Bernd,

we want to use the XServer2 Internet for production (XMap). Are the mentioned URL's (https://xserver2-europe-eu-test.cloud.p ... ion|_____5) correct for production? The '-test' inside the url "https://xserver2-europe-test.cloud.ptvg ... /services/.." confuses me.

Best Regards,
Norbert

Hello Norbert,

you are right:
the URLs with the "test" are not the proper ones for production. I assume the post was initiated before we did set up the production environment last year. The latest version of the test-, integration- and production URLs is listed here:

http://xserver.ptvgroup.com/en-uk/cookb ... formation/

This page also mentions the production domain / URL https://xserver2-europe-eu.cloud.ptvgroup.com and the test URL https://xserver2-europe-eu-test.cloud.ptvgroup.com

Best regards and sorry for the confusion,

Bernd

Hello Bernd,

thanks for the info. That's the information I need. I think that I searched on the wrong pages for that info.

Best regards,
Norbert
