5.2.7 URL API

Figure 19. Configuring the URL API

Enable URL API Enables M2M URL API functions in the system kernel.

Use custom M2M HTTP(S) port Check to specify a specific port for M2M URL API communication.

Current M2M HTTP(S) port Read-only value. Indicates the port where the device currently listens

for M2M URL API commands.

Current M2M security protocol Read-only value. Indicates the HTTP or HTTPs used for

communication.

Custom M2M HTTP(S) port Specific port for M2M URL API only (to fill in the value, enable Use

custom port first). Allowed range 1 – 65535. The device warns you if

you specify a port number that is already in use. However, to be sure,

we recommend to use port numbers above 1024.

Passphrase Password to authenticate HTTP GET communication (pass attribute in

the request).

For an example of toggling output no. 1 using the M2M URL API, click the Test URL API link.

This opens a new browser tab and invokes the following HTTP GET request:

http(s)://<netio.ip.address.here>/netio.cgi?pass=&output1=4

Select http or https depending on whether you use secure connection (https) or standard unencrypted

connection (http).

In previous firmware versions (<3.0.0), the output parameter was called outlet – please take this change

into account in your existing implementations.
