RESTful API Overview

RESTful APIs are used to create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) resources and data using HTTP/HTTPS and URIs.

Third-party systems can use HTTP/HTTPS GET and POST methods to perform operations on system resources and data.

  • HTTP is an insecure protocol, which may bring risks to the system. Therefore, it is not recommended. You are advised to use the secure HTTPS protocol.
  • RESTful APIs can be invoked only in the same trusted zone. If the interfaces need to be opened to the Internet, the OpenAPI GW/AEP needs to be introduced as the authentication platform.
  • /apiaccess/NE name is carried in the interface URI. For example, in /apiaccess/CC-Management, CC-Management indicates the configurable basic path.

    Configuration path (after the API package of the API Fabric is imported): API Management > Configure > Basic Configuration > Basic Path.
