Managing REST Resource Definitions for Open API REST Service

Only one Service Operation for each REST method type is supported for an Open API REST Service. Service Operation Root Resources can be created to create different Service Operations based off the Root Resource.

This example illustrates the REST Resource Definition section for an Open API REST Service.

Building the REST Resource Definition involves the following steps:

  1. If URI variables are to be included in the template, it is necessary to create a Document Template message that contains the variables for the URI.

    See Documents Technology: Adding Documents and Creating Document Message Definitions.

  2. Add Root Resources.

  3. Select the Document Template.

  4. Build the URI index by manually entering the URI or using the Build link.

  5. Use the Details link to define the Request, Response, and Fault messages for the URI.

  6. Use the Validate link to validate the URI.

  7. Add Service Operation Handler information.

  8. When you save the Service Operation a Any-to-Local routing will be created.
