The WSO2 Data Services feature supports exposing data as a set of REST style resources in addition to the SOAP services. Follow the steps given below to define REST resources.
- Log in to the product's management console and select Data Services > Create under the Main menu.
- Th Create Data Service page appears. Fill in the data service details as explained here and click Next.
- Similarly, navigate through the configurations for data sources, queries and operations until the Resources window opens.
Using this window, you can define REST resources that are accessed as RESTful Web services. For example,
- Resource Path: The resource name that is appended to the end of the resource URI
- Resource Method: The HTTP operation (GET, POST, PUT or DELETE)
- Query ID: The corresponding query for the resource invocation
