Client API and Tools

The Play Platform provides a set of APIs: SOAP/HTTP for governance services and REST for user/client services. The current document describes these APIs and their related tools (Web applications).

API

The Client API is described in the page [Play-Platform-API.html]. It provides a REST frontend, authentication mechanisms and uses the governance services on the backend for authorization against permissions.

Configure and Install

The Client API is part of the governance-war module. It needs some configuration steps before production deployment:

The services are secured using tokens (the standard approach in the REST services context). In order to be able to invoke services, client will have to retrieve some tokens in order to put them as HTTP Headers. The client side settings are explained in the REST-API sections.
