    2. Select a service operation to test.

      The REST Tester page appears.

  2. In the tree structure for the message definition, single-click on a field name to populate.

    A dialog box for the field opens that displays field length and field type information as a guide for entering values.

  3. Enter a value for the field.

  4. Click the OK button.
