HTTP CodeDescription
200Endpoint was found and returned
400Bad request
401Unauthorized
500Unexpected internal server error

Example

If the POST request receives the following JSON endpoint object,

Code Block
titlePOST JSON
{

"password": "myPassword",
"description": "description",
"userName": "userName",
"privateKey": "privateKey",
"isActive": true,
"baseDirectory": "ServerInstallRoot + '/localhost'",
"endpointName": "GoodPost",
"connectionType": "SSH",
"endpointAddress": "NotNeeded00",
"endpointId": null,

"endpointPort": "1",
"endpointGroup": "endpointGroup",
"runAsUserName": "TestInput",
"osType": "UNIX",
"javaPath": "ServerJavaHome",

}

The following endpoint object would then be created as a new row in the database

Code Block
titleEndpoint POST Return JSON

"password": "*****",
"description": "description",
"userName": "userName",
"privateKey": "privateKey",
"isActive": true,
"baseDirectory": "ServerInstallRoot + '/localhost'",

HTTP Code
Description
201Environment was created successfully
400Bad request
401Unauthorized
404Environment not found
500Unexpected internal server error


Info
titleAPI URL

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/topology/endpoint/{Id}

If we had an environment endpoint in our database with an Id of 11101 and had the following attributes

Code Block
titleEndPoint Attributes as JSON
{
   "description": "description",
   "userName": "userName",
   "password": "password",
   "isActive": true,
   "privateKey": "privateKey",
   "endpointName": "GoodPost3",
   "osType": null,
   "connectionType": "SSH",
   "javaPath": "ServerJavaHome",
   "endpointAddress": "endpointAddress",
   "baseDirectory": "ServerInstallRoot + '/localhost'",
   "passphrase": "passphrase",
   "endpointId": null11101,
   "endpointGroup": "endpointGroup",
   "endpointPort": null,
   "runAsUserName": "runAsUserName",
   "endpointSubgroup": "endpointSubgroup"
}

When we run a PUT request at the following URL

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/topology/endpoint/11101

And the PUT request receives the following JSON endpoint object,

Code Block
titleEndpoint PUT Receive JSON
{
   "description": "newDescription",
   "userName": "newUserName",
   "password": "newPassword",
   "isActive": true,
   "privateKey": "newPrivateKey",
   "endpointName": "GoodPost3",
   "osType": "UNIX",
   "connectionType": "SSH",
   "javaPath": "ServerJavaHome",
   "endpointAddress": "endpointAddress",
   "baseDirectory": "ServerInstallRoot + '/localhost'",
   "passphrase": "passphrase",
   "endpointId": null,
   "endpointGroup": "endpointGroup",
   "endpointPort": null,
   "runAsUserName": "runAsUserName",
   "endpointSubgroup": "endpointSubgroup"
}

The PUT request would then update the endpoint with Id 11101 and return the following JSON endpoint object.

Code Block
titleEndpoint PUT Return JSON
{
   "description": "newDescription",
   "userName": "newUserName",
   "password": "newPassword",
   "isActive": true,
   "privateKey": "newPrivateKey",
   "endpointName": "GoodPost3",
   "osType": "UNIX",
   "connectionType": "SSH",
   "javaPath": "ServerJavaHome",
   "endpointAddress": "endpointAddress",
   "baseDirectory": "ServerInstallRoot + '/localhost'",
   "passphrase": "passphrase",
   "endpointId": null,
   "endpointGroup": "endpointGroup",
   "endpointPort": null,
   "runAsUserName": "runAsUserName",
   "endpointSubgroup": "endpointSubgroup"
}

Example

If we had an endpoint in our database with an Id of 13909 and had the following attributes

Code Block
titleEndpoint PATCH JSON
{

And the PATCH request receives the following JSON environment object,

Code Block
titleEndpoint PATCH input JSON
{

"endpointName": "PatchedEndpoint",

"endpointId": 12005,
