RESTful Plug-In for OPC Router - License type: Subscription license

RESTful Plug-In

The REST interface is based on pure web technologies. Many modern applications use the REST protocol for data exchange with other systems.

With the OPC Router and the RESTful plug-in, you can access any system that supports the REST interface. You can send requests (REST Client) to retrieve or modify data and send responses (REST Server) to these requests.

Using the pre-defined REST Trigger, a REST API can be created for each system connected to the OPC Router.

Reading Talk2M cloud data and transferring it to the OPC Router via the REST interface – the optimal solution for report generation

The globally available Talk2M cloud service allows for remote access to Ewon industrial routers and devices connected to them. Apart from remote access, Ewon industrial routers can be used for data acquisition. Using them, you can collect data locally as well as remotely through the Talk2M cloud. The data, having been stored in the Talk2M cloud, can then be read, for example, via the REST interface.

Collecting data from Ewon Flexy 205 routers deployed all over the world, through the Talk2M cloud service, is the perfect solution for system integrators. It enables them to monitor the condition of and collect data about machines and production lines all over the world. As the Talk2M cloud service is available worldwide, system integrators can collect data and generate reports from anywhere.

Video tutorial for the RESTful Plug-in

In this video we explain how to integrate OPC Router into your REST communication. In the first example we query weather data from OpenWeather. In the second example we show you how to configure and test a REST-ful interface on the OPC Router to read order data from a database.
