Understanding the sample URL:
  • IP/HostName/TenantName: Replace with the actual IP address, hostname, or tenant name based on the specific configuration in AppViewX.
    • IP: A unique identifier assigned to each device connected to a computer network that uses the Internet Protocol for communication

      The IP address will be included in the endpoint URL for an on-prem deployment.

    • HostName: A human-readable label assigned to a device (host) on a network

      The hostname will be included in the endpoint URL for an on-prem deployment.

      The tenant name will be included in the endpoint URL for a SaaS deployment.

    Note: GWPORT is not required for SaaS setups.
