在AWS EC2机器上安装mongoDB时，在哪里可以找到appID和万能密钥。 解析服务器

Question

I have mongoDB installed on AWS EC2 instance from where I am trying to connect Parse Server installed on my local pc. when I try to connect parse server to parse.com apps using their appid and masterkey it just works fine. but when I try to connect to my mongoDB instance on EC2 then it says "Server not reachable: unable to connect to server".

I already started the server using mongod command on the terminal. I checked the securityGroup it is open to all requests. I checked the database it exist with data in it. I have the following code in configuration file to connect

   {
  "apps": [
    {
      "serverURL": "https://api.parse.com/1",
      "appId": "TWxCk7***************************JZ32k3",
      "masterKey": "S*********t3234*******************i",
      "appName": "ParseServer"
    },
    {
      "serverURL": "https://api.parse.com/1",
      "appId": "x544******************4343************SPtRO",
      "masterKey": "8B4******************Y32fkiiU782IL",
      "appName": "ParseServer 2"
    },
    {
      "serverURL": "http://dbuser:Password@ec2-**4-2**-**4-1*9.compute-1.amazonaws.com:27017/db",
      "appId": "x544******************4343************SPtRO",
      "masterKey": "8B4******************Y32fkiiU782IL",
      "appName": "AWS"
    }
  ]
}

Note: ParseServer2 and AWS apps have same key because the db on EC2 is migrated from it.

in parse server appId and masterKey are configured in the code where you initialize the ParseServer instance.

Go to you parse-server project open index.js and take the appId and masterKey from there..

 var express = require('express'); var ParseServer = require('parse-server').ParseServer; var app = express(); var api = new ParseServer({ databaseURI: 'mongodb://localhost:27017/dev', // Connection string for your MongoDB database cloud: '/home/myApp/cloud/main.js', // Absolute path to your Cloud Code appId: 'myAppId', masterKey: 'myMasterKey', // Keep this key secret! fileKey: 'optionalFileKey', serverURL: 'http://localhost:1337/parse' // Don't forget to change to https if needed }); // Serve the Parse API on the /parse URL prefix app.use('/parse', api); app.listen(1337, function() { console.log('parse-server-example running on port 1337.'); }); 

There you can see your appId and masterKey copy those values and paste them to your dashboard config.
