Data Source SPI

[#1]

I'm wondering if JMP publishes a service provider interface (SPI) that would allow us to publish a RESTful interface that would be natively consumable via the HTTP connector?

Hi @andyczerwonka,  I am afraid I do not understand the question.

• Does JMP have information that you want other applications to access?
• Are you trying to access information from other applications and get that into JMP?
• Are you trying to connect one instance of JMP with another?

All are possible...

I want to provide an interface to JMP, so that users for JMP could easily pull my data in. This would be in the context of a SaaS application, where the user would configure a REST endpoint and provide and API token, then JMP would be able to import data.

This kind of integration is often done when the vendor (JMP) provides a “service provider interface” (SPI), so that service implementers can provide streamlined data integration. It’s basically a description of a protocol, that if I were to implement, would plug directly into JMP.

If you provide a RESTful interface, then JMP can access is via JSL with HTTP Request.

Are just 2 examples.

Does that help answer question?

The second case mostly describes what I'm after. I have determined that JMP does not support the strategy I was hoping for.

As a data provider,I'd love to be a able to implement a data service interface that JMP could plug into that does not require any custom JSL, that'd be ideal. That is typically achieved through an SPI. That capability unfortunately doesn't exist.
