REST Operations

Table and Form-over-Table capabilities are enabled for GET, PUT, PATCH, POST, and DELETE operations as follows:

  • Download is enabled if there is a GET operation on the collection path. Note that you must first download rows before you can perform operations on the item path. Therefore, GET on the collection path is a prerequisite for operations on the item path such as PUT, PATCH, or DELETE.
  • Existing row updates are enabled if the item path has either a PUT or PATCH operation.
  • Create new rows is enabled if the collection path has a POST operation.
  • Delete existing rows is enabled if the item path has a DELETE operation.

For more information about Download, see Download Data. For more information about Upload, see Upload Changes.

Note:

Even if the business object supports an operation, you can still choose to disable a layout's capability by deselecting it in the Layout Designer's Advanced tab.
