Overview

A REST API is an application program interface that uses HTTP or HTTPS requests to perform tasks.

TDM REST APIs are intended for TDM developer users who want to automate and run TDM tasks. You can use TDM REST APIs to perform Test Data Manager, test data warehouse, and the self-service portal tasks.

The APIs use the GET, POST, PATCH and DELETE methods to perform tasks.

You cannot use Test Data Management REST APIs in a Kerberos environment.
