Environments 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 environments.

Base URL for Environment REST API

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/environment

Each function returns a JSON environment object. The environment object has these attributes:

AttributesTypeDescription
descriptionStringThis is a description of the environment
instancesList<Long>This is a list of the Instance Ids associated with the environment
isActiveBooleanThis is a boolean that tracks whether or not the environment is active
environmentCodeStringThis is the unique code of the environment
sortNumberIntegerThis is a number associated with the environment that sets the environments priority in a list of other environments
environmentIdLongThis is the unique Id of the environment
isBuildEnvironmentBooleanThis is a boolean that tracks whether or not the environment is a build environment
environmentNameStringThis is the unique name of the environment

GET

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

GET by ID

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

API URL

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/environment/{Id}

Parameters

URLYesThis is a URL parameter for the Id which is used to find and return an environment

Response Codes

HTTP Code
Description

400Bad request
401Unauthorized
500Unexpected internal server error

Example

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

Environment - 11101
{
   "description": "This is Environment 1" 
   "instances": [15100],
   "isActive": true,
   "environmentCode": "ENV1",
   "sortNumber": 1,
   "environmentId": 11101,
   "isBuildEnvironment": true,
   "environmentName": "Env 1"
}

When we run a GET request at the following URL

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/environment/11101

The GET request would return the following JSON environment object

Environment GET Return JSON
{
   "description": "This is Environment 1",
   "instances": [15100],
   "isActive": true,
   "environmentCode": "ENV1",
   "sortNumber": 1,
   "environmentId": 11101,
   "isBuildEnvironment": true,
   "environmentName": "Env 1"
}

GET (Using Query Parameters)

This GET service will return a list of environments in the form of JSON objects based on the query parameters code and name. Environments are only returned if they match all of the specified query parameters. The name query parameter searches if any environment contains the value given in there name while all other query parameters check if any environment has attributes that are equal to the parameter value. If no query parameters are given this request will return the entire list of environments. 

API URLs

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

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

environmentCode={code}

environmentName={name}

Examples:
To search by code only:

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/environment?environmentCode={code}

To search by name only:

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/environment?environmentName={name}

To search by code and name:

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/environment?environmentCode={code}&environmentName={name}

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