Overview

Representational State Transfer (REST) is a well known method of building Web services over HTTP or HTTPS.

Netvisor ONE® currently supports this method of building Web services using the data format JavaScript Object Notation (JSON).

You should understand Universal Resource Indicators (URIs) and the JSON schema for REST APIs before attempting to use them with Netvisor ONE.

To build applications, you can use a HTTP client with REST API URIs and JSON schema.

User Interaction with REST API describes how you interact with Netvisor ONE to build applications with the REST API and the components used during the process.

vRestApi implements the REST API Web service and interacts with Netvisor ONE.

Note: The target audience for this guide is experienced API programmers.
