SyncAPI question

[OceanStateAstro]

I was able to get an API for SyncAPI but get this error message. Any help would be appreciated.

The error is a DNS lookup error. The name parkerstreetallsky.com is not resolvable by your DNS server.

What would be a good solution? Pick a new name?

[aaronwmorris]

You can use the IP instead.

You can use the IP instead.

Using IP gives same error message

[aaronwmorris]

It should not be giving a hostname resolution error if you are using an IP address in the URL. Is it giving a different exception message?

[OceanStateAstro]

Yes is is the same message just replaced with the IP address

In PR #2120 I updated a new test script I have to support SyncAPI tests. If you would update to this release and run the following command:

./misc/upload_test.py syncapi

Allow me to utilize this thread for my question.
I have a device with only installed "INDI core" and "indiserver-only" (camera attached here).
I have another device with just "Web-only" installed. Should this device also need to install "INDI core" and "indiserver-only" in order to remotely view/control the device that with camera attached?
