Accept Property

The response is serialized to either XML (default) or JSON, and this is controlled by the Accept property in the HTTP header.

Note
titleNote!

If the Accept property is not set, the response will be serialized as XML. To change serialization format to JSON, set the property value to application/json.

See the following curl command example:

Code Block
$ curl -H 'Accept:application/json' http://localhost:9000/webapi/
v1/picos/ec1 -u mzadmin:dr



Authorization Property

The Web API uses basic authentication and the login information is passed to the system by setting the Authorization property in the HTTP header.

Note
titleNote!

All http client libraries should have support for setting the Authorization property in the HTTP header. See the following curl command example for how to set authorization:

Code Block
$ curl http://localhost:9000/webapi/v1/picos/ec1 -u mzadmin:dr


The status information is updated in 5 second intervals, which is considered a sufficient resolution since it usually takes some time before workflows are up and running in full capacity.
