This preface contains:
The following are changes in Oracle Application Express Installation Guide for Oracle Application Express release 4.2.
The following features are new in this release:
RESTful Web Services
In SQL Workshop you can now define RESTful Web Service calls from the database. These definitions combined with the Oracle Application Express Listener 2.0 enables the database to emit RESTful Web Services rather than just being able to consume Web Services. See "Using RESTful Services" in Oracle Application Express SQL Workshop Guide
RESTful Services require the installation of Application Express Listener release 2.0. See "Configure RESTful Services".
The instance administrator enables RESTful Services for this Application Express instance. See "Configuring SQL Workshop" in Oracle Application Express Administration Guide.
The following are additional changes in the release:
All content has been updated to reflect new functionality.

Browser Requirements have changed. See "Browser Requirements".
Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0 or later is now supported.
Mozilla Firefox 14 or later is now required.
