OData for Discourse

Get a RESTful OData API server for your Discourse data and make it available to clients in just a few minutes with Skyvia!

Expose Discourse Data via OData

While Discourse provides its own web API for data access, using a widely accepted OData standard for data access over the Internet is preferred in many cases. OData is supported in a number of data-related applications and technologies, and it makes consuming real-time Discourse data or integrating them with other applications much easier.

Make your Discourse data readily available in BI tools, web and mobile applications, integration interfaces, etc. via Discourse OData endpoints. Get OData API layer with no coding, in just a few minutes!

Skyvia supports all OData versions (OData 2.0, OData 4.0)

Detailed Logging

Monitor all access events for an endpoint. See all the request details: users, IPs, queries, etc.

Additional Security Layer

Create users and define passwords in the endpoint itself — no need to give your Discourse credentials. Limit access by IP if needed.

Data Can Be Shared Partially

Expose only the Discourse tables and columns you need to share. Other tables and columns remain unavailable via the endpoint.

Configure Endpoint

Select entities and fields to expose in convenient GUI. If necessary, create user accounts and specify IPs to allow access from.

Step 3

Share the Link

Simply copy the result HTTPS link to your endpoint and share it with clients or paste to your OData consumer applications.
