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:

http://host:port/contextRoot/restapi/

Authentication

The default method of authentication is through the web container. To change the authentication process, edit servlet.authstyle in the xapirest.properties file.

Note: The payload size limit is not enforced for REST calls. However, large payloads can increase response times and may result in timeouts.
