The REST URL Format

The OpenSSO Enterprise REST operations are supported out of the box so no special configurations are required. The format of the URL is:

http://OpenSSO-host:OpenSSO-port/opensso/identity/OpenSSO-REST-interface?
parameter1=value1&parameter2=value2&parameterN=valueN

If the value of the parameters (value1, value2, ..., valueN) contains unsafe characters, they need to be URL encoded when forming the REST URL. For example, an equal sign (=) needs to be replaced with %3D or an ampersand (&) needs to be replaced with %26. Refer to RFC 1738 for more information on unsafe characters and URL encoding. Some of the following sections contain examples of URL encoding.
