I would like to use restful calls to monitor webfocus availability. What method did you use to do the restful call Care to share how you did it

Im just curious how everyone in the community is using Restful Web Services to leverage any WF apps Please share your use cases. I have played with it just enough to retrieve repository content and listing etc.,

[Chad McKee]

We are currently using RESTful web services to migrate content between environments using Azure pipelines and PowerShell. Let me know if you are attempting to do the same. I could probably share my cmdlets with you.

Thank you Chad, Im interested in learning more, what licenses do we need for this

[Manoj Chaurasia]

It used to be WebFOCUS Web Services Enablement but you should contact your account manager and he/she can get you going.

[Pawan Vuppala]

Thank you Chuck, We already own Restful license and I can see the test page etc., I was just wondering what else Chad was using along with Restful Web Services.

[Chad McKee]

Hi Pawan, I am not sure. That is probably a better question for the IBI folks to field.

Pawan, I am doing the Change Management Import/Export using the impex RESTful ws (http://host:port/ibi_apps/rs/impex). It is described in detail in the WebFOCUS RESTful Web Services Developers Guide.

Mainly REST Webservices in Webfocus is useful to customize Reportcaster, Change Mangement, Login.

We at U.S Bank are interested in knowing how people are using restful calls to automate the change management process and if you have the process integrated with service management tools like ServiceNow. (Jenkins, UCD, etc.)

[Mark ODonnell]

Export and import change management with chat bot, creating and deleting on demand schedules programmatically, clearing client side cache, user and group management, monitoring application up time.

Hi John Bahe,

That sounds great I want to do the same, or close to that. RESTful call, using LINUX, to import into TEST then Stage (copy) the same from DEV to PROD (No Import at this point).
