Select this policy assertion as described in Adding Policy Assertions. You can set this policy on a My Role partner link to provide a REST binding.

This policy provides a context path for the partner link. The context value of the REST-enabled policy is the value used to lookup the process and partner link names registered with the deployment manager.

On deployment, a My Role partner link containing a REST Enabled policy registers the mapping between the REST path and the process and partner link names.

The

Usage

and

Description

fields are optional. You can add the BPEL process name in the Description field and add REST service parameters in the Usage field.

If you fill in these fields for your REST-enabled processes, you can then retrieve a list of deployed REST services, listed by BPEL process and the details you added in the Usage field.

For example, at runtime, the following request URL returns a list of services that have included a description and optionally usage parameters:

http://localhost:8080/active-bpel/services/REST?
