The server process exposes several REST APIs to get status and to execute Python code and query deployed methods.
- Authentication, /info and /evaluate
- http:get:: /status
- http:get:: /endpoints
- http:get:: /endpoints/:endpoint
- http:post:: /query/:endpoint
Analytics Extensions API v1 is documented at https://tableau.github.io/analytics-extensions-api/docs/ae_api_ref.html.
The following documentation is for methods not currently used by Tableau.
Gets runtime status of deployed endpoints. If no endpoints are deployed in the server, the returned data is an empty JSON object.
Example request:
GET /status HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:9004
Accept: application/json
Example response:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
{"clustering": {
"status": "LoadSuccessful",
"last_error": null,
"version": 1,
"type": "model"},
"add": {
"status": "LoadSuccessful",
"last_error": null,
"version": 1,
"type": "model"}
}
Using curl:
curl -X GET http://localhost:9004/status
Gets a list of deployed endpoints and their static information. If no endpoints are deployed in the server, the returned data is an empty JSON object.
Example request:
GET /endpoints HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:9004
Accept: application/json
Example response:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
{"clustering":
{"description": "",
"docstring": "-- no docstring found in query function --",
"creation_time": 1469511182,
"version": 1,
"dependencies": [],
"last_modified_time": 1469511182,

"last_modified_time": 1469505967,
"type": "model",
"target": null}
}
Using curl:
curl -X GET http://localhost:9004/endpoints
Gets the description of a specific deployed endpoint. The endpoint must first be deployed in the server (see the TabPy Tools documentation).
Example request:
GET /endpoints/add HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:9004
Accept: application/json
Example response:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
{"description": "", "docstring": "-- no docstring found in query function --",
"creation_time": 1469505967, "version": 1, "dependencies": [],
"last_modified_time": 1469505967, "type": "model", "target": null}
Using curl:
curl -X GET http://localhost:9004/endpoints/add
Executes a function at the specified endpoint. The function must first be deployed (see the TabPy Tools documentation).
This interface expects a JSON body with a data
key, specifying the values
for the function, according to its original definition. In the example below,
the function clustering
was defined with a signature of two parameters x
and y
, expecting arrays of numbers.
Example request:
POST /query/clustering HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:9004
Accept: application/json
{"data": {
"x": [6.35, 6.40, 6.65, 8.60, 8.90, 9.00, 9.10],
"y": [1.95, 1.95, 2.05, 3.05, 3.05, 3.10, 3.15]}}
Example response:
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Type: application/json
{"model": "clustering", "version": 1, "response": [0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1],
"uuid": "46d3df0e-acca-4560-88f1-67c5aedeb1c4"}
Using curl:
curl -X GET http://localhost:9004/query/clustering -d \
'{"data": {"x": [6.35, 6.40, 6.65, 8.60, 8.90, 9.00, 9.10],
"y": [1.95, 1.95, 2.05, 3.05, 3.05, 3.10, 3.15]}}'
