Abstract
New OpenAPI functionality is a strategic initiative to increase
innovation velocity with CA Performance Management. Let's
face it, few customers share exactly the same requirements to
process and consume data so let's take the handcuffs off. The CA
Performance Management OpenAPI feature is a simple way to
extract just the data you want and perform advanced operations
and innovate new ways for users to consume the data. This
hands-on session will prove there is no developer guide required
to successfully build your own integrations and applications
using the new CA Performance Management OpenAPI feature.

Step 1: View existing device IDs and associated
attributes.
 Use QueryBuilder to find target device IDs.
URL: http://<da>:8581/odataquery

Step 2: Set attributes for target devices.

Step 3: Modify OpenAPI application for your DA.
 Open up the index.html file and modify the daApiUrl variable
to reference your target Data Aggregator.
var daApiUrl="http://<da host>:8581/odata/api/

Step 4: Create application JAR file and deploy to DA.
 Using windows command line, JAR the Application deploy
folder via:
jar -cfm ../devicemap.jar META-INF/MANIFEST.MF *
 Deploy to Data Aggregator using WinScp or similar:
Insert WinScp Screenshot Here

Step 5: Verify application using Test Data Bootstrap.
 In a browser, verify the
application was deployed
properly using the
embedded test data-set
via URL:
http://<da host>:8581/apps/devicemap/index.html?test=1

Step 6: Integrate into CAPC Dashboard.
 Modify an existing
or create a new
Dashboard.
 Add the “Browser
View” view-type.

Step 7: Load dashboard and control context.
 Modify the scope of the data set via the Group Context picker
and Date Range selector.
Note: Create a group structure that allows you to add/remove scope
Note: App is configured to use “hourly” data so time range must be
greater hour.

Extra Credit—What Else Can You Customize?
 Modify App query to use a different metric:
hint: use QueryBuilder to validate metric family and metric names & data)

Congratulations!
You have now successfully built and deployed your first OpenAPI Application!
The sky is the limit from here and by using this example and many other
freely available visualization libraries you can extend the power of CA
Performance Management to meet YOUR needs regardless of product
functionality!
