Hi Forums,
Wondering if anyone uses Aras to send requests out to third party apps? i.e. taking a Part's form data and sending it to openAI API for a summary and waiting for its response and output the text to a new tab for example?
I know there's also linking with third party software, but has anyone done any custom API development in their own C# or JS aras methods?
Best,
Frank
Hello,
You can add external DLLs by copying them to the bin folder of your instance ({path_to_instance}\Innovator\Server\bin), and then you need to add it as a reference in the method-config.xml file (which is also in the same folder). This is valid mainly if you want to use external functions inside your server-side C# methods.
What you want to achieve is also possible. You need to send a request to your application by providing a link to it and to set an authorization - using a token, for example. This is the required information that you need to have. You can specify other additional parameters that you want to pass to your application, like the ItemType, Item ID, or any other information that you would need.
Regards
