Spoolgen Web API is part of the suite of RESTful web APIs developed by Hexagon. The Spoolgen Web API provides access to piping data associated with software applications like Smart Isometrics or Intergraph Spoolgen.
Components of Spoolgen Web API
Spoolgen Web API consists of three main components:
-
Smart API Manager, which manages the authentication of users and provides access to the API. If multiple Smart APIs are in use, only one instance of Smart API Manager is needed for all of them.
-
The SQL Server database in which Isogen data is stored.
-
Spoolgen Web API, which wraps the SQL Server database.
These three components are independent of one another. You can install each component on a different server or all on the same server. You can also set up all components on a laptop.
The client software that uses Spoolgen Web API, such as Spoolgen or Smart Isometrics, is typically installed on a client workstation. However, you can also install the client software on the same computer as the server components. I-Configure, which you use to set up projects and styles, can be installed on the same computer as the client software, or you can install it on a file server when shared between multiple clients.
