To configure database connection and prerequisites for one of the APIs for Smart 3D, you use that API's Configuration Utility to provide information like database connection, caching, and messaging.

  • The steps required to complete this task are almost identical for the two APIs, so the instructions are combined in this help. However, the database connection and prerequisites for each web API must be configured separately, and the configuration steps must be followed on each computer that acts as a web server or hosts the service.

  • If you have an existing IIS site and application for web API already configured, you must restart the IIS application pool and the IIS web application after changing the database connection.

To get started

  1. If you are configuring the API for the first time on this machine, make sure all the prerequisites are installed.

    Before you can configure a web API on a machine, make sure that the following are already installed.

  2. Open the Configuration Utility for the web API you are configuring.

    1. Click Start > Intergraph Smart 3D.

    2. Choose the tool for the Web API you're configuring, either Web API Configuration Tool or Admin Web API Configuration Tool.

      The Configuration Utility opens to the Welcome page, which looks something like this.

  3. On the Welcome page, select Configure Database Connection & Prerequisites.

  4. Click Next, and continue with Provide database configuration information.
