Example

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

Code Block

theme	Eclipse
title	Endpoint PATCH JSON

{
    "passwordCredentialId": null,
    "description": null,
    "userName": null,
    "privateKey": null,
    "isActive": true,
    "baseDirectory": "ServerInstallRoot + '/localhost'",
    "endpointName": "NotPatchedYet",
    "connectionType": "LOCALHOST",
    "endpointAddress": "localhost",
    "endpointId": 13909,
    "endpointSubgroup": null,
    "endpointPort": null,
    "endpointGroup": "TheGroup",
    "runAsUserName": null,
    "osType": null,
    "javaPath": "ServerJavaHome",
    "passphrase": null,
    "passphraseCredentialId": null
}

When we run a PATCH request at the following URL

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/endpoint/13909

And the PATCH request receives the following JSON endpoint object,

Code Block

theme	Eclipse
title	Endpoint PATCH input JSON

{
    "endpointName": "PatchedEndpoint",
    "endpointGroup": null
}

The PATCH request would then update the endpoint with Id 13909 and return the following JSON endpoint object

Code Block

theme	Eclipse
title	Endpoint PATCH Return JSON

{
    "password": null,
    "passwordCredentialId": null,
    "description": null,
    "userName": null,
    "privateKey": null,
    "isActive": true,
    "baseDirectory": "ServerInstallRoot + '/localhost'",
    "endpointName": "PatchedEndpoint",
    "isBaseDirectoryExpression": "N",
    "connectionType": "LOCALHOST",
	"isJavaPathExpression": "N",
    "endpointAddress": "localhost",
    "endpointId": 13909,
    "endpointSubgroup": null,
    "endpointPort": null,
    "endpointGroup": "TheGroup",
    "runAsUserName": null,
    "osType": null,
    "javaPath": "ServerJavaHome",
    "passphrase": null,
    "passphraseCredentialId": null
}
