D Data Types

REST APIs support data types that are specified by the web application developer when they create the business object. At runtime, the framework exposes the data type of fetched resources as the resource describe attribute type.

The following table shows the relationship between the data types supported on business object fields and the corresponding REST data types that the Oracle Business Object REST API framework defines.
