The exception to this rule is Users which will be available if the Rest API user account is assigned or inherits the security role Policy Role – Maintain Users.

You need to ...

Include a Component for Rest API.

Navigate to the Component Management Form (Designer Menu path separator Component Management).

  • Open the required Component
  • Under the tab Rest API, select Include Component in Rest API

OR

Navigate to Designer Menu path separator Configuration Management Menu path separator Rest API Components, and either select:

  • Components to ADD to Rest API (only shows components that are NOT already selected for Rest API), OR
  • Components to REMOVE from Rest API access (only shows components that ARE already selected for Rest API).

Trigger a Publish and the selected components will be available for the Rest API.

NOTE:

If you intend to include any "related component" in your API calls, you will have to do the same for each of these related components.

For example, if you intend to use the Rest API for Incidents, but also include Reported By and Department Responsible, you would have to mark all these components:

  • Incidents
  • Person
  • Department
