Description of the illustration idcs_rest_clients_pattern_description

The image illustrates the design pattern used in the REST Clients sample application. It includes a detailed flow to explain how a user can import the Oracle Identity Cloud Service REST APIs samples so that a client application can be used to test the REST API.

The main diagram has three major visual components:

1. A pictograph of an end user

2. A box labeled REST Client that contains collections for issuing different types of REST API requests

3. A box labeled Oracle PaaS that contains the Oracle Identity Cloud Service

The detailed flow is presented as a two-step process that moves through the three major visual components, as follows:

1. The end user accesses a REST Client application hosted in a local machine or in another environment (such as Postman), and imports the Oracle Identity Cloud Service REST API samples.

2. The end user performs REST API requests using the REST Client. Those requests are processed by Oracle Identity Cloud Service and retrieved to the REST Client.
