GET by Query Parameters

...

Info
titleAPI URL

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v2/administration/resourcetype?

Append the following character sequences to the above URL to specify Query parameters.
Use '&' between successive query parameters: 

resourceTypeId={resourceTypeId}

resourceTypeName={resourceTypeName}

isActive={isActive}

ownerType={ownerType}

Examples:
To Specify the code parameter only:

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v2/administration/resourcetype?resourceTypeId={resourceTypeId}

To Specify the code and group code parameters:

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v2/resourcetype?resourceTypeId={resourceTypeId}&resourceTypeName={resourceTypeName}

To Specify the name, group code, and sub group code parameters:

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v2/resourcetype?resourceTypeId={resourceTypeId}&resourceTypeName={resourceTypeName}&ownerType={ownerType}


Tip

The query parameters are not case sensitive. Searching by resourceTypeName=NAME is the same as searching by resourceTypeName=name.

Example

If we had an Resource Type in our database with an Id of 20408 and had the following attributes

Code Block
titleCurrent Resource Type
{
    "description": "Postman test data1",
    "ownerType": "Workflow",
    "resourceTypeName": "PostmanGet Resource Type Test REST 1Example Name",
    "isActive": true,
    "createdOn": 1629882360332,
    "versionNumber": 1,
    "createdBy": "fdadmin",
    "resourceTypeId": 20408,
    "updatedBy": "fdadmin",
    "updatedOn": 1629882360332
}

When we run a PUT request at the following URL

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v2/administration/resourcetype/20408

And the PUT request receives the following JSON Resource Type object,

Code Block
titleSample JSON Input
{
    "description": "Postman test data 1 updated",
	"ownerType": "",
	"isActive":false,
	"resourceTypeName": "PostmanGet Resource Type Test REST 1 Example Name updated"
}

The PUT request would then update the Resource Type with Id 20408 and return the following JSON Resource Type object.

Code Block

{
    "description": "Postman test data 1 updated",
    "ownerType": "",
