REST Connector from an external Server to Jedox

The current REST Connector only supports one connection setup from JEDOX -> Server.

This means that each accessing server must first open an incoming port. When an incoming port is opened, further steps must be initiated to secure the server. The new security concept must also implement mechanisms that restrict access to relevant data.

A connection from the server to Jedox is more effective, as an outgoing connection can be used to access a port in Jedox that is already open. Servers can thus be quickly connected to JEDOX and existing security concepts are still valid.

The REST API must support OAuth2 Authentication and Up-/Download Data to Jedox in Chunks with max size of 4 MB.

    Thank you for your great idea. We will consider this for our future roadmap until then, you can evaluate using our OLAP API to writeback and retrieve data, however, note that this API does not support OAuth 2.0. You can find more information in our Knowledge base article
