Creating Root Resource

Use the Create Root Resource page to create a new root resource.

Select the Create Root Resource button from the Application Service page.

This example illustrates the fields and controls on the Create Root Resource page for a Consumer Application Service. You can find definitions for the fields and controls later on this page.

Root Resource	The name of the Root Resource defined by the Provider.
Description	A description of the root resource.
Status	Status for the root resource. When a root resource is created, the default status is Active.

If you select a URL Identifier for the Application Service, the REST Base URL field gets automatically populated and becomes read-only. To define the REST Base URL, remove the URL Identifier entry and tab out. Note: You must define either a REST Base URL or URL Identifier to save the Application Service.

Note:

For the cases where a root resource cannot be established then any root resource name will do as long as it complies with the Oracle naming standards.
