Instances Target Groups can be accessed and modified through this API using four services: GET, POST, PUT, and PATCH. These four services allow for the retrieval, creation, complete update, and partial update of InstancesTarget Groups.

GET

There are two implementations of GET. One will find an Instance a Target Group with the given Id and return the JSON representation of the InstanceTarget Group. The other will find a list of Instances Target Groups matching the parameters supplied to it.

GET by ID

This GET service will find an Instance a Target Group with the given Id and return the JSON representation of the object.

{
	"description": "GET example description",
	"environments": [11001],
	"workflows": [],
	"instanceId": 11004,
	"instanceName": "GET Example Name",
	"isActive": true, "pluginOperations": [],
	"instanceCode": "GETEXAMPLECODE",
	"groupCode": "GET example group",
	"subGroupCode": "GET example sub group",
	"isDeploymentTarget": false
}

{
	"description": "GET example description",
	"environments": [11001],
	"workflows": [],
	"instanceId": 11004,
	"instanceName": "GET Example Name",
	"isActive": true, "pluginOperations": [],
	"instanceCode": "GETEXAMPLECODE",
	"groupCode": "GET example group",
	"subGroupCode": "GET example sub group",
	"isDeploymentTarget": false
}

This GET service will return a list of Instances Target Groups in the form of JSON objects based on the query parameters instanceCode, instanceName, groupCode, and subGroupCode. Instances Target Groups are only returned if they match ALL of the specified query parameters. If no query parameters are given this request will return the entire list of Instances. The instanceName parameter returns instances Target Groups that contain the specified parameter. The other parameters must be equal to the instanceTarget Group.

		"instanceCode": "GETEXAMPLECODE2", 
		"groupCode": "group", 
		"subGroupCode": "GET example 2 sub group", 
		"isDeploymentTarget": true
	}
]

POST

The POST service will create a new instance Target Group with the same attributes as the given JSON object. It returns the JSON representation of the Instance Target Group that was just created with an updated ID attribute.

Example

If the POST receives the following JSON instance object,

{
	"description": "POST example description",
	"environments": [11001],
	"workflows": [],
	"instanceId": 1,
	"instanceName": "POST Example Name",
	"isActive": true,
	"pluginOperations": [],
	"instanceCode": "POSTEXAMPLECODE",
	"groupCode": "POST example group",
	"subGroupCode": "POST example sub group",
	"isDeploymentTarget": false
}

the following Instance Target Group will be created in the database. Notice the updated Instance Id field.

{
	"description": "POST example description",
	"environments": [11001],
	"workflows": [],
	"instanceId": 11004,
	"instanceName": "POST Example Name",
	"isActive": true,
	"pluginOperations": [],
	"instanceCode": "POSTEXAMPLECODE",
	"groupCode": "POST example group",
	"subGroupCode": "POST example sub group",
	"isDeploymentTarget": false
}

PUT

This PUT service will update all attributes of an Instance a Target Group with the given Id based on the attributes of the supplied JSON object.

{
	"description": "Example description",
	"environments": [],
	"workflows": [],
	"instanceId": 11104,
	"instanceName": "Example Name",
	"isActive": false,
	"pluginOperations": [],
	"instanceCode": "EXAMPLECODE",
	"groupCode": "Group",
	"subGroupCode": "Sub Group",
	"isDeploymentTarget": false
}

{
	"description": "PUT description",
	"environments": [11001],
	"workflows": [11104],
	"instanceId": 1,
	"instanceName": "PUT Name",
	"isActive": true,
	"pluginOperations": [],
	"instanceCode": "PUTCODE",
	"groupCode": "PUT group",
	"subGroupCode": "PUT sub group",
	"isDeploymentTarget": true
}

{
	"description": "PUT description",
	"environments": [11001],
	"workflows": [11104],
	"instanceId": 11104,
	"instanceName": "PUT Name",
	"isActive": true,
	"pluginOperations": [],
	"instanceCode": "PUTCODE",
	"groupCode": "PUT group",
	"subGroupCode": "PUT sub group",
	"isDeploymentTarget": true
}

This PATCH service will update the information of the Instance Target Group of the specified Id with the non-null parameters of the JSON. The parameters that are null will not be changed in the Instance.

Example

If we had an instance a Target Group in our database with an Id of 11104 and had the following attributes

{
	"description": "Example description",
	"environments": [11001],
	"workflows": [],
	"instanceId": 11104,
	"instanceName": "Example Name",
	"isActive": false,
	"pluginOperations": [],
	"instanceCode": "EXAMPLECODE",
	"groupCode": "Group",
	"subGroupCode": "Sub Group",
	"isDeploymentTarget": false
}

...

The PATCH request would then update the instance Target Group with Id 11104 and return the following JSON instance object.
