Usecase-UI is an application portal which provides the ability to manage ONAP service instances.
- Usecase-UI allows customers to create/delete/update service instances, as well as to monitor the alarm and performance of these instances.
2. API definitions
Usecase-UI provides the following interfaces(Since Usecase-UI doesn't offer APIs, we just provide the architecture of the two portal):
| Interface Definition | Interface Capabilities | API Spec (Swagger) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| UU-APIE-1 | Operator Portal | User interface for operators:
| usecase-UI architecture |
| UU-APIE-2 | Customer Portal | User interface for customer:
| usecase-UI architecture |
Note: xxxI interface is a Component internal interface. xxxxE interface is a component external interface
