Overview
REST, which stands for Representational State Transfer, is an architectural style for designing networked applications. It is a set of principles and constraints used to build web services that are lightweight, maintainable, and scalable. REST is commonly used over HTTP and utilizes HTTP methods, such as GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, and PATCH, to interact with resources, typically represented in formats like JSON or XML. RESTful services are easy to integrate with existing websites and are utilized by most modern web applications due to their simplicity, performance, and scalability.
The REST integration is a standards-based integration that enables you to gain visibility, manage identity life cycle, and govern access to data available in REST endpoints. Use this connector to integrate any application that supports REST without any coding.
