Service HTTP
rules
Completing the New or Save As form

Before you begin creating a Service HTTP rule, create or identify a service package data instance; the name of the service package becomes the first key part of the Service HTTP rule.
A Service HTTP rule has the following three key parts:
Field |
Description |
| Type |
Select |
| Customer Package Name |
Select the name of the service package you created for this service rule. See About Service Package data instances. If your application is to process requests from this service asynchronously through a background agent, define a Service Request Processor data instance (Data-Admin-RequestProcessor-Service class) with this Customer Package Name value as key. |
| Customer Class Name |
Enter a name that logically groups related service methods (service rules). This name is unrelated to Rule-Obj-Class es; it must be a valid Java identifier. See How to enter an identifier. |
| Customer Method Name |
Enter an arbitrary identifier that describes the function of the Process Commander activity called by this service. See How to enter an identifier. |
For general information about the New form, see Completing the new rule dialog box. For general information on the Save As form, see How to enter rule keys using Save As.
When searching for a Service HTTP rule, the system filters candidate rules based on a requestor's RuleSet list, which defines the RuleSets and versions the requestor can access.
Circumstance-qualified and time-qualified resolution features are not available for Service HTTP rules. The class hierarchy is not relevant to Service HTTP rule resolution.
