Hi,

Is there any way to get configuration (i.e. cameras/groups) of all federated VMSes by using REST API/SOAP ? I want to use credentials to master site, get token and query all connected sites.

The way Milestone Federated Architecture (MFA) works is that you can log in on all the sites using the same AD credentials. Even in Smart Client and MIP SDK (MIP library .Net Framework) this is what happens behind the scenes.

In Rest API you can use ChildSites to find other addresses you need to connect to to gather a full configuration of the MFA.

There is a way to get the full configuration; it requires that you connect to all sites not just the master site.

Thanks for clarification. One more question :slight_smile:

If I asked master site for child sites I will get entire tree or just first level ?

I assume that child site can have also child sites, Thanks again
