Still not RESTing on my laurels

I can keep this pun going forever: -

Using the REST APIs in IBM Business Process Manager V7.5


This useful reminder came from my IBM BPM jedi colleague, Dawn, who kindly pointed out that we have a sweet REST UI testing tool built right into the product.

This is the link from the BPM 8.0.1 Information Centre: -


<snip>
Start the REST API test tool. Direct your web browser to the URL for the REST API test tool. The value of the URL depends on how the virtual host and context root were configured for your installation. The URL takes the following form:

http://host_name:port_number/bpmrest-ui

</snip>


*BUT* the same also works for me on my current project using BPM Standard 7.5.1.1, both for Process Center AND Process Server.

Which is nice ….

Like a slightly altered version of those ubiquitous pizza box slogans, "You've tried the rest, now try the REST."
