Is the WebService still required for the integration with i-doit?

Category: Integrations

No!

The WebService implements access to some JDisc Functionality using a SOAP interface on port 9000. However, with the new GraphQL-based API, the SOAP service is obsolete. I-Doit can access our GraphQL-API to perform the same tasks as with the WEB Service starting with i-doit Release 22.

Simply change the protocol in i-doit to HTTPS and use port 443 and then i-doit will use the GraphQL API and you can uninstall the obsolete WEB Service Add-On.

The GraphQL-API offers two major advantages:

  • It is using HTTPS by default (as with the WEB Service, HTTP was used by default)
  • It is a modern and powerful API that lets you automate everything in JDisc.
