How one webservice is deployed?

Hi there

Rapidminer is very powerful to expose any process to a web service. Once you know how, it's super easy and in no time you will be creating a lot of web services. 

I left you here a link that explains it very good:
https://community.rapidminer.com/discussion/31461/rapidminer-server-create-web-services-from-process

Once you create the web service, you have to copy the link to call it from wherever you want. 

Hope this solve your question, if not feel free to ask me anything.

Have a great day!

Hey @mpineda
 
Thank you for your reply, but I have already done this i.e created the webservice, but I wanted to deploy my webservice so that I, can call it from anywhere. Actually I want the url to be called from excel, so that all my new data will go and get loaded there and even I can fetch the result from the same url to the Excel.

Basically I want to feed my data from excel and get the results to excel, is this possible in RM using the webservices?

Thank you

Hi @SGolbert

I already created the web service as suggested by @mpineda, and yes I am able to call it from anywhere with the link, but my concern is if I can call the same from Excel or not. I tried to connect from excel through From Other Sources -> From Web, and in the URL field I gave the web service URL link but was not able to connect to it.

I wanted to know if I can connect from Excel to web service URL link or not... What I am trying to do is, I have already run a model in my studio and the same in the server, have created web service for the same in the server and also have accessed it from my system and was able to see the results.



As this is already done, and I am having my web service ready in the server I want to send my new data set (bearing the same column names and structure) to be tested and get my target value. I want to push the new data from my Excel through the web service and let it do all the stuff for me so that I will have a get request or something similar from excel to fetch my results there (at Excel). 

For e.g. here is the link of azure ml studio Excel. You can see Excel is already built in here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju1CzDjiOMQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ju1CzDjiOMQ.<br>
This is what I want to do in Rapid miner, as internally there is no built-in connection for Excel, so I wanted to connect it externally through web service. Actually, I also do not know if this will be possible or not, wanted to try it out. 

Also as you mention about the need of an RM Server with static IP/DNS and open ports, yes Sir I have already done this earlier, hence no issue with it.

Please let me know if at all this is possible or not.
