Could you please give guidelines, thanks

Andrey Terentyev, This API requires Admin permission, I still did not setup the admin, how to setup or configure the server for the admin?
Thanks

Andrey Terentyev, Thanks for the answer, I am getting in the way
I installed the NX Meta Server and Client, then I started the testcamera app using a video,
Then, I used Python to setup the localsystem using API -
import requests
r = requests.post("http://localhost:7001/api/setupLocalSystem", json={"password":"nx_server_pass","systemName":"user123"})
But, it throws error Max retries exceeded with url: /api/setupLocalSystem (Caused by NewConnectionError('<urllib3.connection.HTTPConnection object at 0x7f0e347f3100>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 111] Connection refused'
Is this because that the localhost is http instead of https?
Do you know about this issue, thank you

1. You should use HTTPS.
2. You don't provide auth information in your requests.post function.
In this case, API request to the Server has be authenticated with the default credentials. -
Thanks for your answer,
I am still getting the same error, I will check on code side,
Is this way of installing and setup the admin account is correct? -
Installing NX Meta Server and Client, then I started the test camera app using a video,
Then, using API - /api/setupLocalSystem helps to setup the local system.
Or, Is there anything missing like starting the NX Meta Server in Ubuntu with some commands?
I am really appreciate your help, thank you

The procedure is the following:
1. Install VMS.
The Server process start automatically after the installation.
2. Configure the System with api/setupLocalSystem with default credentials.
3. Apply licenses (if you need to) with /api/activateLicense
JSON example
{
"licenseKey": "XXXX-YYYY-ZZZZ-FFFF"
}4. Start the test camera
The Server will discover and add test cameras automatically.5. Do your things

Could you please explain your scenarios with more details? What is the objective? What is the expected final result?
Could you share your code, please? Just place an archive to Google Drive or similar and post the link in this thread.

Hi SHANMUGARAJ K,
After the Nx mediaserver is running, the test camera emulator is started, the generated test cameras are added through the auto-discovery, which is enabled by default, you start the Nx Desktop client and login with the credentials you used when you created the system. When you're logged in, the test cameras should be available and can be added to the layout, recorded, etc.
