Same content(Assets) on different devices?

1

Hi,
is there a way to fill 2 or more devices running Anthias with the same assets from one backend ?

I want to send important Infos to a few monitors in different location on the same LAN. Is there a way to “link” the Anthias installations, so a “master” backend will be used to get the informations on different “client” Anthias installations ?

thinking about a future feature writing this words - how about a “private” vpn like hamachi running directly on Anthias to sync Anthias devices worldwide ?

Hey @NKA - there is an API you can use to push things back and forth, we’ve not written our own CMS yet but it’ll happen in the near future. I’m managing, oooh, 40-odd devices now so it’s starting to get to be a bit of a pain to do this by hand!

Hi AlexisPHC,

is there a tutorial or something else to use the API - I´m not familiar with this, perhaps you can help me - and others - out ?

@NKA, you could get started with Postman’s blog post about REST APIs. You could test REST APIs using Postman or even curl.

Once you have an idea of what are APIs and what they do, you can open up a browser and go to http://<DEVICE_IP_ADDRESS>/api/docs to check the API documentation (given that you’ve already installed Anthias on your Raspberry Pi or x86 device).

Let us know if you have any further questions.
