Project Stream API
Project Streams can be accessed and modified through this API using four services: GET, POST, PUT, and PATCH. These four services allow for retrieving, creating, completely updating, and partially updating Project Streams, as well as populating files from a Project Stream.
Authentication - Use Basic Authentication for this API.
GET
There are two implementations of GET. One will find a Project Stream with the given Id and return the JSON representation of the Project Stream. The other will find a list of Project Streams matching the query parameters supplied to it.
GET by ID
This GET service will find a Project Stream with the given Id and return the JSON representation of the object.
API URL

Response Codes
HTTP Code | Description |
---|---|
200 | Project Stream was found and returned |
400 | Bad request |
401 | Authentication failure |
403 | Authorization failure (no access to resource) |
404 | Project or Stream not found |
500 | Unexpected internal server error |
Example
If we had a Project Stream in our database with an Id of 11101 belonging to a project with an Id of 10002 and the following attributes:
{ "description": "Stream Description", "isActive": true, "streamName": "FirstStream", "versionSyntaxScript": "\"1.0.\" + SequenceNumber", "attribute3": "three", "attribute2": "two", "attribute1": "one", "streamId": 11101, "sequenceNumber": 3 }
When we run a GET request at the following URL:
http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/project/10002/stream/11101,
The GET request would return the following JSON Project Stream object:
{ "description": "Stream Description", "isActive": true, "streamName": "FirstStream", "versionSyntaxScript": "\"1.0.\" + SequenceNumber", "attribute3": "three", "attribute2": "two", "attribute1": "one", "streamId": 11101, "sequenceNumber": 3 }
GET (Using Query Parameters)
This GET service will return a list of Project Streams from the specified project in the form of JSON objects based on the query parameter streamname. Project Streams are only returned if they match all of the specified query parameters and belong to the corresponding Project. If no query parameters are given this request will return the entire list of Streams within the specified Project.
API URLs
http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/project/{projectid}/stream?
Append the following character sequences to the above URL to specify Query parameters.
Use '&' between successive query parameters:
streamName={streamName}
isActive={boolean}
Examples:
To search by code only:
http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/project/{projectid}/stream?streamName={name}
To search by isActive and code:
http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/project/{projectid}/stream?isActive={boolean}&streamName={name}
The query parameters are not case sensitive. Searching by name=NAME is the same as searching by name=name.
