The Governance REST API is one of many APIs supported by WSO2 Governance Registry. Read more on Supported APIs and Standards for a complete list of APIs supported by WSO2 Governance Registry.

The Governance REST API basically facilitates the capability to perform the CRUD operations via the well-defined HTTP protocol. The REST API uses the GET, POST, PUT, and DELETE operations of the well-defined HTTP protocol to do the CRUD operation via any REST Client. Google Chrome's Advanced REST client is one of the client tools used to test the functionality of the Governance REST API.

The Governance REST API is secured with Basic Auth access token. You can invoke the rest API with Basic Auth header
Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4= where the format is Authorization: Basic {base64encoded(username:password)} 

 

At the moment REST API only supports configurable governance artifacts. Support for Content artifacts such as WSDL and Policy are limited. Future versions of REST API will equally support both types of artifacts.  

Security Requirements

You must send valid HTTP BasicAuth credentials when invoking the REST API.

 

See the sections below for information relating to invoking the REST API after generating the access token and some sample requests and complete URI formats:

 

Assets

  1. Get list of available artifact types

     

    Syntax  GET /governance/types/
    ExampleGET https://localhost:9443/governance/types/
    Sample cURL Commandcurl -X GET -H "Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=" -H "Cache-Control: no-cache" "https://localhost:9443/governance/types/" -i -k
  2. Get list of assets of certain type

     

    Syntax  
    • GET /governance/<asset_short_name_s>
    • GET /governance/<asset_short_name_s>?query 
    Supported Query Format
    • xyz  - Looks for artifacts with name xyz

      • You can give only the value like above or give the field name and the value in a key-value pair for fields of the Overview table in the asset RXT file. (e.g. name=xyz)
      • However, to find assets with a specific value for a field in a table other than the Overview table, the search query should be:
        encode(table_name:field_name)=encode(value)
        For example, if the table is docLinks, the field is documentType and the value is 'the rest1'. The final URI query parameter should be: docLinks%3AdocumentType=the%20rest1
      • If you have spaces or any special characters such as underscore or slash in the key of the key-value pair of your query URL, you need to encode it using a URL encoder.
    • xyz&version=1.3.5 - Looks for artifacts with name xyz with version 1.3.5

    • tags=abc - Searches artifacts with tag 'abc'

    • lcState=development&lcName=ServiceLifeCycle - Searches artifacts with an associated life cycle name ServiceLifeCycle with state 'development'

    • country=usa - Looks for all the artifacts having attribute country with value 'usa'. This internally handles whether country is an rxt attribute or a property.

    • version=1.3.5&mediaType=application/vnd.wso2-soap-service+xml - searches only soap services with version 1.3.5  

    WSO2 G-Reg does not support date range searches in Governance REST API.
