HTTP verb functions

getRequestHTTPVerb

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

getResourcePathSegments

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]

Note:

You cannot use the

getResourcePathSegments

function to fetch the resource path segments of SOAP requests and message events. You cannot use the

getResourcePathSegments

function to fetch the host context.
