Logging onto API Portal through the User Interface in a Browser
To open the API Portal user interface, open your browser and point it to the port on the host machine where the API Portal instance is running. By default, API Portal runs on port 18101.
All API Portal components must be started to open the API Portal user interface. If any of the components are not started, the browser displays an error. For example:
403 Forbidden You don't have permission to access / on this server.
