Similarly, is there a way to see notifications i.e. mentions, replies, best answers inside the Community portal itself?

I have another account that I created using another email address. On that account, when I try to create a new topic or question here in the forum, I get an error that says I don’t have permission for that category. Is there something special that has to be done to my account in order for me to have rights to post? This account I’m posting from is representing an IFS customer - so maybe it has more rights by default - and non-customers are not allowed to post?

Hi, We have been working on several integration projects which involve either sending data from IFS or pushing data into IFS mainly through RESTful API’s. For some of our external systems calling into IFS I was thinking it would be good to check the status of our IFS instance before commencing with the operation. Is there a suitable IFS Rest API I can call which shows the status of our IFS instance? I would prefer doing this rather than calling something else to see if our IFS instance is operational.We are currently running IFS10. Many Thanks,Dan
