It depends on your Linux distribution and Tomcat settings. One possible location is /var/lib/tomcat8/lib.

Hi!

Yes, you should put nxapisrv.properties to lib directory of your web server (any directory on classpath). Tomcat 7 should be ok for web service API (although Tomact 8 is required for web UI).

hi victor,

sorry late your respond, i have tested using tomcat8 and grafana succes connected,
but i test with curl from server console only success get sessions but i tried get data container or node the result is access denied.
for your information i use same credential on server console and grafana but the the result is different.
i follow this guide https://wiki.netxms.org/wiki/Web_service, there is something configured i miss?

thanks,
Best regards,
