Question & Answer
Question
STEPS:
1) Set SQL to DEBUG in Logging application
2) Open Postman and enter a GET URL to connect to an SQL Server environment
http://hostname:port/maxrest/oslc/os/mxperson?stableId&lean=1&oslc.select=personid&stablepaging=0&lastfetchts=904687&fetchmodedelta=1
3) Get a response:
{"member": [
{
"email_collectionref": "http://hostname:port/maxrest/oslc/os/mxperson/_QUJCWQ--/email",
"_rowstamp": "[0 0 0 0 0 21 -80 -127]",
"personid": "ABBY",
"sms_collectionref": "http://hostname:port/maxrest/oslc/os/mxperson/_QUJCWQ--/sms",
"href": "http://hostname:port/maxrest/oslc/os/mxperson/_QUJCWQ--",
"phone_collectionref": "http://hostname:port/maxrest/oslc/os/mxperson/_QUJCWQ--/phone"
},

4) In the Maximo log, rowstamp converts to BIGINT
select * from person where (cast(rowstamp as bigint)>904687)
Question:Why it is returning in bye array format instead of integer?
When you pass rowstamp to Maximo in the get request, the lastfetchts value is integer. Why Maximo needs rowstamp in integer format for request but returns byte array format in response?
