HTTP connection info

Connect through the local network

To use the HTTP API, connect your computer to the uplink network of the positioning server (Network interfaces & requirements) and find the positioning server's IP address in the Positioning server: Info page of the webapp.

The HTTP API can be reached on port 4000 of this IP address. Make sure to include the version, v1, in the URL.

For example: GET http://192.168.82.1:4000/v1/anchors

From version 2020.3 on it is also possible to reach the api via the default HTTP port, port 80. You will need to include api and the version, v1, in the URL.

For example: GET http://192.168.82.1/api/v1/anchors

try:
	response = requests.get('http://192.168.80.178/api/v1/alerts')

	alerts = response.json().get('alerts')
	print(alerts)
except requests.exceptions.HTTPError as errh:
    print(errh)
except requests.exceptions.ConnectionError as errc:
    print(errc)
except requests.exceptions.Timeout as errt:
    print(errt)
except requests.exceptions.RequestException as err:
