    Can the API be used on one server to start/monitor a job on another server?

    I have a "dashboard" of sorts where I can monitor a lot of tasks on multiple servers and it would be great to be able to check the progress of a job or start a new one from the dashboard which runs on a server other than where A-Parser is installed.

    API use is not necessary. A-parser - a web application, and run it on a server, you can seamlessly connect to it from another location using the address ip_server:9091

    If I wanted to use the API remotely though, is it possible? I assume it is if you can access it directly from the ip: port?

    As always, thanks for your help.

    Yes, of course, API can be used remotely by accessing it at the same address ip_server:9091
