Send Requests

Use these guidelines when sending requests using the Offline Mediation Controller REST API.

URL Structure

Here's the URL structure for the requests:

• apiroot is for accessing the HTTP Gateway server at either http://hostname:port or https://hostname:port

For example, the URL for updating a node:

http://hostname:port/nodes/{id}
