Endpoints 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 endpoints.

Authentication - Use Basic Authentication for this API.

GET

There are two implementations of GET. One will find an Endpoint with the given Id and return the JSON representation of the Endpoint. The other will find a list of Endpoints matching the parameters supplied to it.

GET by ID

This GET service will find an Endpoint with the given Id and return the JSON representation of the object.

GET (Using Query Parameters)

This GET service will return a list of Endpoints in the form of JSON objects based on the query parameters name, address, group and subgroup. Endpoints 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 Endpoints.

API URL

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

Append the following character sequences to the above URL to specify Query parameters.

Use '&' between successive query parameters:

endpointName={name}

endpointAddress={address}

endpointGroup={group}

endpointSubgroup={subgroup}

Examples:

To Specify the name parameter only:

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/endpoint?endpointName={name}

To Specify the name and group parameters:

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/endpoint?endpointName={name}&endpointGroup={group}

To Specify the name, address and group parameters:

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/endpoint?endpointName={name}&endpointAddress={address}&endpointGroup={group}

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

Example

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

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,

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

Endpoint PATCH Return JSON

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