Getting Started
Welcome to EKA API docs! Here is the detailed version of how it works with demo videos for your reference.
Download and Install
This video will demonstrate how you can download the Eka API software and how to configure it on your local machine or server machine.
How to create a Flow Service
This video will demonstrate how you can create a flow service from Eka API web workspace and how to set basic API settings like HTTP Method and API endpoint.
How to create and map parameters
This video will demonstrate how to create request/response parameters & how to map the parameters in the Eka API.
How to test Flow Service
This video will demonstrate how to test your flow service as REST-WS using postman.
How to call an external Rest webservice
This video will demonstrate how you can setup & call an external API and transform the response to your flow service.
How to call multiple webservices
This video will demonstrate how you can call multiple external APIs in a flow service. The session will show how a result of an API will transform as an input to the following API and the actual response of flow service will build based on multiple API calls.
How to invoke a service in a single step
This video will demonstrate the beauty of this software, and how you can reuse one flow service into another flow service to build a web service quickly.
How to use a loop
This video will demonstrate how to add a loop in your flow service and how to iterate the list of items and process it.
How to use a
Try-Catch-Finally
(TCF-Block)
This video will demonstrate how you can add TCF block (Try, Catch & Finally) into your flow service.
How to use Switch statement
This video will demonstrate how you can use switch & case statement in your flow service.
How to use "Repeat" block to handle retries
This video will demonstrate how to use Repeat statement in your flow service. Repeat service is basically a retry functionality which runs on success or failure.
Debugging: How to take a snapshot in a flow service
This video will demonstrate how you can add snapshot on any step in your flow service and how to check the snapshot on server.
How to create a custom flow service in JAVA
This video will demonstrate how you can create a JAVA code as a service for your complex algorithm & use into your flow service.
How to configure Rest endpoint for a flow service
This video will demonstrate how you can change rest endpoint of your flow service.
How to implement a Sequence block
This video will demonstrate how you can apply conditions on sequence in your flow service.
How to re-use a "Flow Service" in another Flow Service
This video will demonstrate how you will invoke other service/flow service and reuse it in your flow service
How to implement a file upload API
This video will demonstrate how you can upload a file from API and how to upload it on server/cloud services.
How to create and access global configuration properties
This video will demonstrate how you can add properties into a global property file and how to access them in a flow service.
How to enable/disable a step in a flow service
This video will demonstrate how you can enable and disable a step in a flow service.
How to create and access local configuration properties
This video will demonstrate how you can use properties in a flow service and how to access them.
How to create and access package configuration properties
This video will demonstrate how you can create and access properties of package level into a flow service.
How to import JAVA dependecies into the Package
This video will demonstrate how you can upload a JAVA JAR file in workspace.
How to access a function from uploaded dependency
This video will demonstrate how you can access uploaded dependencies into a JAVA service.
How to implement a file download API
This video will demonstrate how you can read and download a file from server or other cloud services using a flow service.
How to create a user and setup user profile on EKA API
This video will demonstrate how you can setup a user's developer profile on server.
How to assign and manage consumer groups
This video will demonstrate how you can add consumer groups to give the API access.
How to lock, unlock and assign developer roles to a service
This video will demonstrate how you can lock, unlock a service/flow service while modifying it without being an owner of it and how to assign the roles to developer to let them make the changes.
How to download a snapshot from server
This video will demonstrate how you can add a snapshot on any step in your flow service and how to check the snapshot on server.
How to execute DML queries in the database
This video will demonstrate how you can use DML queries.
How to query a database record
This video will demonstrate how you can use DQL queries.
Setup a JDBC Datasource
This video will demonstrate how you can setup a JDBC connection with MySQL database.
