Action Description

RESTful Action

The RESTful action uses a third-party API to implement specific functions.

In Intelligent Policy Center, configure a policy to associate the Execute RESTful Action option with a periodic event.

Then, the system periodically calls the third-party API according to the RESTful action configuration.

Use the following configuration to test the RESTful action:

HOST IP:	127.0.0.1 (IP address of the system server)
PROTOCAL(http/https):	http (Protocol used to access system）
PORT:	8080 (HTTP port used by the system)
USER NAME:	admin (Login username）
PASSWORD:	admin (Login password）
URL:	/imcrs/scc/testAction (Path of the action script on the system server)

Structure of Request and Response Messages

The RESTful action always uses the PUT method.
Structure of the request message sent by the RESTful action:
<actionParams> <actionParam> <key>param1</key> <value>value1</value> </actionParam> <actionParam> <key> param2</key> <value> value2</value> </actionParam> </actionParams>
Structure of the response message returned by the third-party API:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <actionParams> <actionParam> <key>test</key> <value>123 changed.</value> </actionParam> <actionParam> <key>errorCode</key> <value>0</value> </actionParam> <actionParam> <key>errorMsg</key> <value/> </actionParam> <actionParam> <key>newParam</key> <value>New</value> </actionParam> </actionParams>
After the request and response messages are configured, the system stores the parameters returned by the action in returnMap(key,value).
