With the OData connector, you can access OData V2- and V4-compliant REST services.
For example, the Microsoft Graph API or data sets from Intrexx can be made available as an OData service for external platforms, apps, or services. Integrate data from these services into your Intrexx platform to create a central hub for applications and processes.
The OData connector allows you to consume and publish data.

Security
Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS)
By default, the Intrexx OData server allows browser requests from different domains and defines the corresponding CORS response headers for them.
If you want to restrict this behavior, you can use the following two system properties to specify which values are allowed for the CORS headers `Access-Control-Allow-Origin` and `Access-Control-Allow-Headers`:
-
de.uplanet.lucy.server.odata.producer.server.AccessControlAllowHeaders
Comma-separated list of allowed request headers
-
de.uplanet.lucy.server.odata.producer.server.AccessControlAllowOrigins
Comma-separated list of allowed origins
If the properties are not defined, the default behavior remains in effect.
