Examples

This example shows how to update the details of a telephone number for a given ID by submitting a PATCH request on the REST resource using cURL. For more information about cURL, see "Install and Use cURL".

cURL Command

curl -X PATCH "http://hostname:port/InventoryRSOpenAPI/resourceInventoryManagement/version/telephoneNumber/ID" -H credentials @tnPatch.json

where:

  • hostname is the URL for the UIM REST server.
  • port is the port for the UIM REST server.
  • version is the version of the API you're using.
  • ID is the ID of the telephone number to be updated.
  • tnPatch.json is the JSON file with updated values.

Example of Request Body

This shows an example of the contents of the tnPatch.json file sent as the request body for the MERGE patch.

Note:

The MERGE patch requests should not have ID and Resource-Specification attributes in the requests as they cannot be updated. 

{
    "@type": "TelephoneNumber",
    "description": "Office Desk"
}

This shows an example of the contents of the tnPatch.json file sent as the request body for the JSON patch. 

{
    "op": "add",
    "path": "/description",
    "value": "Office Desk"
}
