REST APIs (Outbound)

Use the REST APIs integration option to retrieve information from a resource such as purchase requisitions, requisition preferences, requisition lifecycles, shopping catalog, and content zones.

Key Features

Uses the REST GET method.

Best Practices

• For better performance, limit the attributes using the fields query parameter while performing a GET operation whenever it's supported.
• Use the limit and offset query parameters to specify how many records and which batch of records to return when exporting large amounts of data. These query parameters are required to retrieve the next batch of records because maximum amount of records you can retrieve at once within a single batch is 500.

Constraints

• Uses only the JSON format.
• The contentZones REST resource doesn't limit the number of content zone records, and catalog content/security assignments that you can create. However, you need to be aware of the following UI limitations in the Security region of the content-zone definition:
  • A maximum of 3,000 deliver-to locations can be displayed when a secured by deliver-to location is used.
  • A maximum of 1,000 users can be displayed when secured by worker is used.
• The contentZones REST resource enables you to secure content by the deliver-to location. However, this security assignment is only applicable to the Oracle Responsive Self Service Procurement application.
