Updating databases

In most cases FactFinder handles data updates itself. However, depending on the definition of the update process, the import will not be initiated by FactFinder itself, but via the Import interface. This makes sense especially if the data is provided using the Push method.

If a URL from which your export data can be drawn is stored in the FactFinder Search configuration, it is possible to download this before the import, so that it can be loaded.

REST-Interface

The search application contains the technical documentation for the REST-Interface and can be accessed via https:/[your-ng-server-here]/fact-finder/swagger-ui.html or via this URL:

Methods are documented under records. In addition to viewing the parameter documentation, you can also test a query and view the results. The documentation was created with Swagger, so you can use Swagger Codegen to generate a client to use in your code.
