Add Data Source Connectivity to Your App with Rest API

  1. Log in to the Kuika platform and open the project you’ll be working on from the Apps screen.
  2. Open the Datasources module from the top menu. In this module, you can view the data sources and actions in your application under the Recently modified and Data sources tabs, search using the Search by name field, and add a new data source.
  3. Click the Create an API card at the top of the screen. This card allows you to create Swagger, REST, OData, SAP, and MQTT broker connections.
  4. In the list that opens, select the REST API (RESTful web services) option under the APIs & Services heading. You can use the ↑/↓ keys to navigate the list and the Enter key to make a selection.
  1. Enter a name for your data source in the Name field (e.g., userguiderest).
  2. Click the CREATE button to complete the process. To cancel the operation, use the CANCEL button; to return to the connection type selection, use the < REST API link.

Note: You can also start the process of adding a new data source by clicking the + icon next to the Sources heading in the left panel.
