Invoking REST services

You can access List, Detail, Create, Modify, and Delete APIs through the REST layer with GET, POST, PATCH, and DELETE HTTP requests.

Accessing the REST servlet

The REST servlet is deployed to handle resources under the URL:

https://host:port/contextRoot/restapi/

Authentication

The default method of authentication is STANDARD. The xapirest.properties file has a default value for authstyle as servlet.authstyle = STANDARD. This property can be changed by using the System Administration Console. After modifying the property, the application server must be restarted.
