Notes

Note: The "Setup Web Synchronization" screen is designed to allow being repeatedly without disrupting the availability of the Web service. However, unless you're making major changes, you should only need to run the "Setup Web Synchronization" screen only once per database.

Note: The URL that leads to your web application will be your base URL + "/dataserver/" + the name of your database. However if your database name starts with "dataserver_", than this portion will be removed. So a database name of "dataserver_abc" would result in a URL of https://www.yourdomain.com/dataserver/abc, but a database name of "my_abc_database" would result in a URL of https://www.yourdomain.com/dataserver/my_abc_database.
