Note: Use this structure the same way you use the structure for man pages:
Follow the presentation pattern, but if a section isn't needed, don't include the header.
Also:

  1. Add an entry to the REST API CheatSheet
  2. Add an entry to the REST API (categorized) page
  3. Add an entry to the REST Resources page

Requirements

  • Requirement #1
  • Requirement #2

Permissions

__TBD: Are the permission(s) right?__ -- check Administrative Permissions for a list of possibilities

List All __resourceName__ (Record)s

("Get" if complete records are returned. "List" if partial data is returned, requiring a second read to get a complete set of data. This comes before the GET, because typically it's called first to get the ID used in a specific-record GET.)

Dynamic Search for __resourceName__ Records

Method
GET
URI
https://{domain}/networking/rest/__resourceName__?{query_parameters}
Query Parameters
  • fieldList - A comma-separated list of field names to retrieve
  • The asterisk (*) wildcard specifies all fields
  • {fieldname} specifies an individual field (e.g. name)
(Use the REST API:field Resource to get a complete list of fields.)
  • For a Composite Object, specify {alias}.{fieldname} to select a related-record field, where the alias is defined in the Object Relationships.
  • For a Database View, specify {alias}.{fieldname}, where the object alias is defined in the Database View.
  • alias.* specifies all fields in the aliased object.
  • filter - Filtering criteria to filter the records
  • pageSize - Number of records to retrieve from the result set in order to make a "page".
  • page - Number of the logical page in a database result set. The first page is page "zero" (0).
Page zero is returned by default, so appending &pageSize=1 to your query returns a single record.
  • getTotalRecordCount returns the number of total records.
    Causes the following structure to be returned, where N is the total number of records:
<platform> 
   <status>
   <packageDeploy>
   ...
   </packageDeploy>
   </status>
   <message>
      <code>0</code>
      <description>Success</description>
   </message>

   <!-- added by the query param -->
   <totalRecordCount>N</totalRecordCount> 
</platform>
  • sortBy - Field name for primary sort
    Ex: &sortBy=name
  • sortOrder - Sort order of the primary field, either asc or desc (ascending or descending)
    Ex: &sortOrder=desc
  • sortBy2 - Field name for secondary sort
  • sortOrder2 - Sort order of the second field, either asc or desc (ascending or descending)
For more information, see: Specifying Query Parameters in REST APIs
Response

    <message>
        <code>0</code>
