Deploying Micro Focus COBOL Analyzer Web API

The following steps will enable the COBOL Analyzer REST API:

  1. Open Windows Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.

    This opens Windows Service Manager.

  2. Right-click Micro Focus COBOL Analyzer Web API, and then click Properties.

    This opens the Properties dialog box.

  3. Click the Log On tab, check This account and type the username and password of a user that has access to COBOL Analyzer and its workspace.
    Note: The logon user for the Micro Focus COBOL Analyzer Web service is significant because the user preferences for this user will impact the types of repository and Hypercode objects that will be returned in a search. Diagrams displayed in CA Web will also use options set for this user.

    In addition, to be able to run the Source Synchronization process the specified username must be a master user for the workspace.

  4. Restart Micro Focus COBOL Analyzer Web API service.
