Testing the REST APIs in IBM BPM V8.5

Introduction:
IBM® Business Process Manager provides a set of APIs that are implemented based on Representational State Transfer (REST) services. A set of REST resources is available for accessing IBM BPM artifacts, including business processes, and tasks. A test tool is provided with the IBM® BPM REST APIs. You can use this tool to help you learn about the REST APIs, and to test those APIs that you are planning to use in your application.
Overview:
The REST API test tool is a web application that you can use to prototype the following IBM BPM REST resources and their associated parameters:
           Ø  BPD-related resources
           Ø  Federated BPM resources
           Ø  BPEL-related process resources (IBM BPM Advanced only)
           Ø  BPEL-related task resources (IBM BPM Advanced only)
The tool is installed on each Process Center and Process Server node as part of the IBM BPM installation.
How to Use REST API test tool:
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
Where:
host_name is the network name for the host of the process server or Process Center.
port_number is the port number used by the REST API test tool. The port number depends on your system configuration. The default port number is 9080.
For example, if you wanted to test the REST APIs available on port 9080 on myserver1, you would open the http://myserver1:9080/bpmrest-ui URL in your browser.
In the REST API test tool, select an API.
Optional: Enter any associated parameters that you want to include in your test.
Click Execute Call to start the test. The response data is shown in the results pane.
