How to use Codebeamer server as an OSLC server please?

[RR_12247123]

Hello everyone,

I want to use the Codebeamer server (2.2.0.1) as an OSLC server, and I have trouble to do so.

First I followed this Server Guide and added a new section to the Application Config:

"apiThrottling" : {
"urlPatterns" : "/api/oslc/**",
"bandwidthConfigs" : {
"capacity" : 100,
"timeUnit" : "SECOND"
}
},

I saved it, and it said "saved and re-applied" or something like that. Seems like it shall be ready.

Then I try from my browser (which I login to codebeamer already) the following url:

https://my_codebeamer:8080/cb/api/oslc/catalog/projects

Also tried this

https://my_codebeamer:8080/api/oslc/catalog/projects

Both shows connection timed out.

Do I need to setup port 8080 for oslc, or is it the default (fixed) port? Did I miss anything here please?

Thank you very much in advance.

Hello  RR_12247123

Thank you for posting the topic!

Except apiThrottling parameter, there are other two settings need to be check: contentSecurityPolicy or CB_CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS, and mail

Please refer to the following article:

In addition, please use Postman to access "GET https://my_codebeamer:8080/api/oslc/catalog"  with Basic Auth.

Best regards,

It turns out I don't need the port number here. After adding the contentSecurityPolicy, I can use curl to access /api/oslc/catalog/projects. 

Also you are right, I need to use curl, the browser doesn't work for the OSLC api GET.
