  description: 'The web server in Factory I/O exposes a REST API for reading and writing simulation tag values from external clients. The web server uses conventional HTTP response codes to indicate success or failure: 2xx for success, 4xx for client errors, and 5xx for errors in Factory I/O. By default the server listens on port 7410. Requires the Ultimate Edition with the web server activated via the app.web_server = True console command.'
