API node not configured

RohitRanga

Hello, I tried to deploy an API service in the Enterprise trial version. I created my infrastructure with details as shown below. How do I configure a static API node? Without this, I am not able to deploy an endpoint.

Hi @RohitRanga
,

To install static API node: https://doc.dataiku.com/dss/latest/installation/custom/api-node.html

You will have a license Business or Enterprise license. https://www.dataiku.com/product/plans-and-features/

The free 14-day enterprise trial will not work for API Nodes.

If you are in touch with the Dataiku Sales team they can help with an appropriate license.

Thanks,

RohitRanga

Thanks @AlexT
! Just to confirm, I would not be able to install an API node, deploy an end-point and use Test queries with the Enterprise trial, is that correct?

Alexandru

That is correct, free 14-day enterprise trial can't be used to install an API node.

You can still use API Designer and test queries locally within API Designer on DSS with the Enterprise trial:

Oh, even though I was able to deploy the endpoint, it gives me a warning that no API nodes are configured. So I am not able to test queries.

Alexandru

You can test before deploying in the api designer under test queries.

I am getting this error (refer attachment)

Alexandru

Can you share your code?

RohitRanga

Sure, here it is. I am just using the default code.

Things not clear:

- predict function asks for dataframe, but how to send a dataframe using test queries?

- any processing that needs to be done on the input, (for eg., getting embeddings from text) needs to be handled inside the predict function only?

- from the error, it seems like there is a failure with the development server deployment

@AlexT
It is now working! The only error I am facing now is when I try to access files (in local machine and managed folder) the same way I used to access inside the flow recipes.

Alexandru

That’s expected the same methods will not work you have use the api as if the endpoint Is external And provide an api key :

What is the difference between the project key and API key? I was able to create a project key from Project > Security > API key

RohitRanga

Does API key refer to the personal API key? I found it inside User Profile and Settings
