Defines the machine port number the service is binding to. This port number can be given at service level only.any number
Using ports below 1024 may require additional privileges.

2048Builder 7.12.0 2MiB, default if not specified
Http Header Roles
(httpHeaderRoles)

Builder 7.12.0 Runtime 2020.12 Assign roles to dedicated incoming headers  that define how the related header will be treated by the xUML Runtime. These definitions overwrite the default behavior (see REST Adapter > HTTP Headers), and X-Transaction-Id, X-Request-Id, X-Sender-Host and/or X-Sender-Service will be substituted by this definition. Refer to HTTP Header Support > Overwriting the Standard HTTP Headers for more details.

Http Header Roles can hold a list of definitions in format <http header name>:<role>, where <role> can be one of the listed allowed values (one list entry per line).

client_host

Take the sender host from header <http header name> instead of X-Sender-Host.

client_service

Take the sender service from header <http header name> instead of X-Sender-Service.

correlation_id

Take the correlation ID from header <http header name> instead of X-Request-Id.

transaction_id

Take the transaction ID from header <http header name> instead of X-Transaction-Id.
Token Type
(tokenType)

Mark the service as to use token authorization. The Bridge REST Test Tool will then present a field to enter the token and put the value into the HTTP headers. Refer also to tokenHeaderName for more information.

You can use both in a REST service: basic authorization and token authorization, see useBasicAuth.

noneDo not use token authorization.
API KeyUse API key authorization.
Token Header Name
(tokenHeaderName)
Defines the name of the header that will transport the token. This tagged value is only relevant, if token authorization is enabled at all. The token header name will be presented as the name of the header field that can be entered in the Bridge REST Test Tool. Refer also to tokenType for more information.A valid HTTP header name (according to RFC2616/RFC7230).
Use Basic Auth
(useBasicAuth)

Mark the service as to use basic authentication mechanisms. The Bridge REST Test Tool will then present fields to enter the credentials and put the values into the HTTP headers.

You can use both in a REST service: basic authorization and token authorization, see tokeType and tokenHeaderName.

trueEnable basic authentication.
falseDisable basic authentication (default).
Json Keep Nulls
(jsonKeepNulls)
Multiexcerpt
MultiExcerptNamejsonKeepNulls

Builder 6.0.26 When jsonKeepNulls is true, attributes of the REST response object having NULL values will be rendered to the REST response, otherwise they will be left out completely (see also chapter NULL Values).

trueRender attributes with NULL values to the REST response.
falseLeave out attributes with NULL values in the REST response (default).
Json Compact
(jsonCompact)
Multiexcerpt
MultiExcerptNamejsonCompact

Builder 7.0.0-beta3 When jsonCompact is true, the JSON composer will generate compact JSON, otherwise it will generate pretty JSON. jsonCompact defaults to true - also on re-compile of an older model with Builder as of 7.0.0-beta3.

trueGenerate compact JSON (default).
falseGenerate pretty JSON.
Json Write Type Discriminator
(jsonWriteTypeDiscriminator)
Multiexcerpt
MultiExcerptNamejsonWriteTypeDiscriminator

Runtime 2021.6 Builder 7.15.0 When jsonCompact is true, the JSON composer will generate xUML type properties ("e2e:type") to the generated JSON. If this option is true, the Runtime will write the original xUML type to the generated JSON in form of "e2e:type": "<name of the original xUML type>" if the type being serialized does not match the expected metadata. This is necessary if you want to convert the generated JSON back to an xUML class using jsonToClass().

Runtime versions before 2021.6 will ignore the value.

trueWrite xUML type discriminator.
falseDo not write xUML type discriminator.

Relative Path
(relativePath)
Defines the path of the REST resource or collection in relation to the parent resource . You can provide a static path, or a dynamic path using the notation :<name of a REST Parameter>. You may also provide a combination of both.nonethe name of the REST resource will be used, e.g. /supportcases
any valid stringthe given name will be used
a dynamic path supplying a REST parameterdynamic path, the value of the REST parameter will be passed to the REST methods, e.g. :id

<<REST>>

Stereotype <<REST>> is used on a <<RESTResource>> class method to mark it as REST method, part of a REST service structure.

Multiexcerpt
MultiExcerptNamenote_RESTOperation
Info
iconfalse

<<REST>> is the stereotype to apply to a REST method. Do not confuse with <<RESTOperation>>, which is used for RESTful HTTP services as described on RESTful HTTP Service.
The latter approach is recommended only, if you want to use content types different to JSON and XML.

If the method name is one of GET, POST, PUT, DELETE, PATCH, HEAD, OPTIONS (with optional trailing '/'), it will be invoked automatically on its parent resource when an corresponding request is received.

Refer Implementing REST Methods to for more details and some examples.

Is Verbatim Path
(isVerbatimPath)

Disable most of the path normalization. All escaping must be done manually, leading or trailing whitespaces are preserved.

<<RESTError>>

Multiexcerpt
MultiExcerptNameRESTError

Stereotype <<RESTError>> is used on a class to mark it as REST error class. Assign such a class to the REST port type (see <<E2ERESTPortType>>) and this class will be used as output in case of error. Each REST port type can have its separate error class.
You can report errors back to the caller using something like:

Code Block
local response = getRestHttpResponse();
response.responseObject = <my error object>;
response.httpStatus = <a matching http error code>;
