Want to check whether your API service is really working? Install this.

You'll have to put the api-check web application on your .NET server. Set it to use its own application space. For a new install, it's easiest if you install it on the portal server itself.

Make sure you can browse directly to the content outside the portal. The URL might be something like http://localhost/api-check/portlet.aspx.

Import the PTE file. If you installed on a machine other than the portal, or if your system is load balanced, then edit the remote server to point to the appropriate host and path up to /api-check, then browse to the api-check community.

Enjoy.
