OptimaWSI provides a proxy service for mapping external resources to Optima via an HTTP request based on a specific URL.
In addition, OptimaWSI supports associating an URL with:
- Executing an external file (in asynchronous mode).
- Sending a file to the client (the content type of the HTTP response is set automatically according to the requested file).
A proxy can be configured in:
/opt/ptv-optima-vv.n.xxxxptv-optima-as/standalone/configuration/optima/optima-configuration.xml.
In the <proxy> section, you can define a proxy as shown in → OptimaWSI configuration > Proxy section.
Finally, the proxy can be accessed through the address:
http://localhost:8080/optima-wsi/proxy/myproxyentry
The proxy identifier is the name of its configuration node.
The HTTP proxy supports both GET and POST methods.
