Use the REST Server APIs to access the IBM® Tivoli® Directory Integrator Server from non-Java-based clients through the RESTful interface. REST stands for Representational State Transfer. This interface delegates all calls to the already existing Server APIs by providing a representation for the already defined resources such as Configurations, ConfigInstances, AssemblyLines, PropertyStores, and Listeners. The REST Server API uses HTTP/1.1 for transportation and allows resource representation in both XML and JSON syntax.
