Configuring the appliance by using the REST management interface

You can use the REST management interface to view and alter IBM® MQ Appliance configurations.

When you use the REST management interface for this purpose, you send HTTP requests to the REST interface port and receive JSON-formatted responses with a payload and indication of success or failure. You can incorporate requests into programs and so automate interaction with the appliance.

For a reference guide to the REST management interface, see REST management interface.
