Does anyone have experience with migrating from PI Web Services to PI Web API?

Hello everyone,

 

I am PI Engineer for my organization. A few weeks ago, I had done a migration for PI DA from on-prem to cloud. After the migration had completed, I received a report from users that some of the data was not migrated to cloud servers. Upon checking on the report, I found that the users are using PI Web Services to integrate with PI DA. The issue is that PI Web Services is already deprecated. Now I need to migrate from PI Web Services to PI Web API.

 

Is there a way to migrate from PI Web Services to PI Web API? I had received the XML file from the users, but I did not have the experience to do the migration from PI Web Services to PI Web API. Need your help on this matter.

 

Thank you.

    You'll need to identify where the PI Web Services are being called from, to say anything about any migration path. If it's being called from a custom application, the developer of this application must update the code accordingly. If it's being called from a third-party application through the use of custom data access functionality there, you'll first need to identify if this application supports PI WebAPI - which is a RESTful web service, as opposed to PI Web Services, which is a SOAP web service.
