PI Web API configuration

PI Web API endpoint using BASIC authentication:

EndPointType=PIWebAPI
EndPoint=https://test-node/piwebapi/omf
User=myusername
Password=mypassword

• EndPointType=PIWebAPI

  This line signifies the start of a PI Web API configuration.

• EndPoint

  The URL endpoint of the PI Web API service.

• User

  The identity of the user configured to communicate with PI Web API. This field is erased from the config file after the service is started.

• Password

  The password corresponding to the User field.

Alternatively, PI Web API can be configured to use OIDC authentication. In this setup, like with CONNECT, a Client ID and Client Secret replaces the traditional User and Password. Additionally, the URL of the token endpoint that was specified during PI Web API configuration is needed for authentication.

EndPointType=PIWebAPI
EndPoint=https://test-node/piwebapi/omf

TokenEndPoint=https://token-endpoint/identitymanager/connect/token
ClientID=my-client-id

ClientSecret=my-client-secret
