REST Service Compatibility
Beginning with version 9.7, CentraSite supports the enhanced interface for REST Services (in contrast, earlier versions of CentraSite supported a standardized interface for REST Service). Documentation of the prior REST service interface is available to CentraSite customers who have a current maintenance contract in Empower Product Support website.
If you Migrate REST Services from a Pre-9.7 Release: If you have REST Services that were created prior to
CentraSite version 9.7, these REST Services will continue to hold the version's metadata in the enhanced REST Service interface implemented by current version of
CentraSite.
If you Migrate REST Services from a 9.7 Release: If you have REST Services that were created in the
CentraSite version 9.7 using the
CentraSite Business UI, these REST Services will again continue to hold the version's metadata in the enhanced REST Service interface implemented by current version of
CentraSite. However, you will find the following information in the migrated REST Service:
The sample request and response messages that existed under the REST Method display without changes.
The status codes that existed under the REST Method will now display under the REST Response.
Note: Beginning with version 9.8, although CentraSite supports the existing REST Sample Requests and Responses, we enforce you use the REST Requests and REST Responses to specify additional details about the REST payload. You may use the Sample Requests and Responses if required.
