Resource Types

All REST resources provided by the WebCenter Sites Aggregate REST API can be classified into the following types:

  • Singular Resource: A singular resource returns the response of a single entity in WebCenter Sites. It has a singular resource format.

  • port - IP Port where the WebCenter Portal is running.

  • Collection Resource: A collection resource is a group of singular resources. It has a plural resource format. For example, employees is a collection resource that includes all the individual employee singular resources.

In WebCenter Sites, a collection resource supports pagination. A typical response format of a collection resource in WebCenter Sites follows:

{
hasMore : A Boolean value. Tells whether there are more results. 
totalResults : Total size of results in the collection. 
count : Server-side pagination size.
limit : Number of results fetched in the response.
offset : starting index of the results.
items : Array. Results are available here, and each result is a singular resource.
links : Pagination links (next, prev, first, last) + links to self, canonical, and schema resources.
