cURL Access

The examples within this document use cURL to demonstrate how to access the Oracle Integration REST API.

To use cURL to access the Oracle Integration REST API:

• Install cURL, as described in Quick Start.

• In a command window, set the cURL environment variable, CURL_CA_BUNDLE, to the location of your local CA certificate bundle. For information about CA certificate verification using cURL, see: http://curl.haxx.se/docs/sslcerts.html.

• Invoke cURL and specify one or more of the command-line options defined in the following table, as required, to direct its execution.

  cURL Option	Description
  -d, --data '{"name":"value"}' -d, --data @file.json	Identifies the request document, in JSON format, on the local machine.
  -F, --form @file.json	Identifies form data, in JSON format, on the local machine.
  -H, --header	Defines the content type of the request data.
  -i	Displays response header information.
  -o path	Identifies the response output on the local machine. Use this option for export operations and to save a response to a file.
  -H 'Authorization: Bearer access_token???	Specifies the access token for the Oracle Integration account. See Security, Authentication and Authorization.
  -X, --request	Indicates the type of request (for example, GET, POST, and so on).

The following example cURL command posts a comment to the task with the ID 123456:

curl -H 'Authorization: Bearer eyJiO.eyJzdZ.tQ8_-9Jor5'
 -H "Content-Type:application/json"
 -H "Accept: application/json"
 -X POST
 -d '{"commentStr":"add test Comment"}'
