Request header

Use a request header to define the operating parameters or the metadata of a REST operation.
The following table lists the request header parameters:
Parameter
Description
Content-Type
Format of the request body.
Accept
Format of the request response. Accepts application/json.
IDS-SESSION-ID
The session ID of the user. See Session IDs.
MODEL_VERSION
Current version of the MDM SaaS configuration that includes the data model. Specify the model version as the current epoch timestamp in milliseconds.
To improve performance and avoid request failures due to version differences, specify the same model version parameter in the request header when you send multiple requests in succession.
To construct the REST API request header for a resource, add the header parameter after the following request line:
//<baseURL>/v1/api/
Use the following syntax to construct the REST API request header for a REST API resource:
<METHOD> https: //<baseApiURL>/business-entity/public/api/v1/<resource name>
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json
IDS-SESSION-ID: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
For example, you might use the following request to read a business entity master record:
GET https: //<baseApiURL>/business-entity/public/api/v1/entity/c360.organization/70046899550283630729399822719 HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json
IDS-SESSION-ID: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
