IT Process Automation

Hi like to check if Catalyst RESTful services support Json content body. I only found material that it supports XML. 

Yes, JSON is supported. 

https://docops.ca.com/ca-process-automation/4-3-1/en/reference/web-services/restful-api-reference

The implementation of RESTful services adheres to the following design principles:

• Use HTTP methods explicitly
• Be stateless
• Access resources such as URIs
• Support XML and JSON (JavaScript Object Notation)

Hi Micheal, I found the info but there are no document on how to construct request body in Json format.

Sorry Yong, our documentation currently does not have any JSON specific details for the REST Api but we are working to improve that in future releases.

In the meantime there are several discussions on JSON here in the community and an example process here:
