In computing, POST is a request method supported by HTTP used by the World Wide Web. By design, the POST request method requests that a web server accepts the data enclosed in the body of the request message, most likely for storing it. [ 1 ]
REST, or Representational State Transfer, describes a series of architectural constraints that exemplify how the web's design emerged. [1] Various concrete implementations of these ideas have been created throughout time, but it has been difficult to discuss the REST architectural style without blurring the lines between actual software and the ...
The Web Application Description Language (WADL) is a machine-readable XML description of HTTP-based web services. [1] WADL models the resources provided by a service and the relationships between them. [1]
Introduces resources and allows requests for individual URIs (still all typically POST) for separate actions instead of exposing one universal endpoint (API). The API resources are still generalized but it is possible to identify the scope of each one. Level One design is not RESTful, yet it is organizing the API in the direction of becoming one.
The RESTful Service Description Language (RSDL) is a machine- and human-readable XML description of HTTP-based web applications (typically REST web services). [1]The language (defined by Michael Pasternak during his work on oVirt RESTful API) allows documenting the model of the resource(s) provided by a service, the relationships between them, and operations and the parameters that must be ...
"The OASIS OData TC works to simplify the querying and sharing of data across disparate applications and multiple stakeholders for re-use in the enterprise, Cloud, and mobile devices. A REST-based protocol, OData builds on HTTP, AtomPub, and JSON using URIs to address and access data feed resources. It enables information to be accessed from a ...
A Web API is a development in Web services where emphasis has been moving to simpler representational state transfer (REST) based communications. [2] Restful APIs do not require XML-based Web service protocols (SOAP and WSDL) to support their interfaces.
Diagram of a double POST problem encountered in user agents. Diagram of the double POST problem above being solved by PRG. Post/Redirect/Get (PRG) is a web development design pattern that lets the page shown after a form submission be reloaded, shared, or bookmarked without ill effects, such as submitting the form another time.
