Structure of the file importing custom web services (CSV format)

For each custom web service that can be imported or exported, this section defines the structure of a row that makes up the CSV file.

These services can be imported/exported in ObjectsWEB SERVICES:

  • Import custom services tab to import,
  • List of web services tab to export (Export custom database menu).

All fields are separated by commas on each row in the file. Optional empty fields will be included between two commas:

  • Name of the service (mandatory): text string using only accepted characters (see Allowed names),
  • Public IPv4/IPv6 address (mandatory) or FQDN (mandatory),
  • NOTE
    Private IP addresses are not allowed.

  • Date of last revision (optional),
  • Revision number (optional),
  • Comments (optional): any text.

IMPORTANT
The CSV file must contain a blank line after the last entry.

EXAMPLE
CustomWebService1,john.doe.org,2022/01/19,12.2,My first webservice with FQDN
CustomWebService2,1.2.3.4,,,My second webservice with IP address
CustomWebService3,5.6.7.8,2022/01/19,15,My third webservice

Do note that for web services relying on several IP addresses or several FQDNs the line that describes this web service must be duplicated as many times as the number of addresses or FQDNs that the service contains.

EXAMPLE
CustomWebService1,john.doe.org,2022/01/19,12.2,First FQDN for my first webservice
CustomWebService1,foo.bar.org,2022/01/19,12.2,Second FQDN for my first webservice
CustomWebService1,1.2.3.4,2022/01/19,12.2,IP address for my first webservice
