Application and service discovery

Application and service discovery provides the automatic detection of registered web applications (along with their features) and services.

• Many applications can be operated using each other's services without the need for frequent human interaction/configuration

• Services, applications are dynamically interchangeable, expandable without human interaction.

• Possibility to provide a choice from applications/services of the same type

Basic protocol

Synergy provides /api/discover endpoint where applications can send HTTP GET request for list of available applications and their application info. Request has to be authenticated using JWT token header (see authentication page ) either for current user or service itself. Interactive documentation is available on http://team1.synergy.cxn.io/swagger-ui.html#!/gateway45public45api45controller/discoverUsingGET (to try out change team1 to your subdomain and authorise the requests on gateway-public section by client id and client secret).

Example

HTTP GET https://team1.synergy.example.com/api/discover

Response

In order to support application service and feature discovery application must implement few basic Synergy Features.
