How webMethods Integration Server Processes REST Requests
When Integration Server processes a REST request, it parses the tokens and identifies the HTTP method to execute, locates the resource to act upon, and passes additional information as input parameters to the services you wrote for your application. The configuration of the REST resources determines how Integration Server handles the requests from REST clients. Integration Server provides the following two approaches for configuring REST resources:
Legacy approach: Using this approach, you can create a new REST resource, including the resource folder and the flow services corresponding to the supported HTTP methods.
URL template-based approach: Using this approach, you can configure REST resources for an existing
Integration Server service.
The following sections explain the approaches in greater detail.
