Use the

getRequestHTTPVerb

function to determine the HTTP verb that is used in a request. The function retrieves the HTTP verb from the request and returns one of the following responses in a string format:

GET
POST
PATCH
PUT
DELETE

Use the

getResourcePathSegments

function to retrieve all or specific resource path segments of REST requests. The function returns the values as a string of tokens.

For example, consider the following request URL:

https://na1.ai.dm-us.informaticacloud.com/active-bpel/rt/InitiateOrder/Orders/OrderID_100/quantity/5

If you use the

request:getResourcePathSegments()

expression, you see the following response:

[Orders, OrderID_100, quantity, 5]

To retrieve a specific resource path segment, use a numeric qualifier to denote the position of the resource path segment from the process name.

For example, to retrieve the

OrderID_100

segment alone in the response, use the following expression:

request:getResourcePathSegments()[2]
