When compiling a service from the Designer, a REST service is generated from each BPMN model. You can test this service in Scheer PAS API Management.
To test a service in API Management, you have to make sure that the service settings are set correctly before you start the deployment. The settings are different depending on whether a service has a user interface or not:
You can also test services, that have been deployed to a container:
If your service does not contain any forms:
| |
When the service has been deployed successfully, use icon Open Test API in the Controls panel. | |
The test UI opens within API Management. You can do the following here:
| |
Expand the REST operation to see the necessary parameters. To start testing, enter the required data and click the Execute button. Scroll down to check the test responses. |
If your service does contain forms:

When the service has been deployed successfully, use icon Open Test API in the Controls panel. If your service contains more than one BPMN model, a list of all available processes opens. Select the one you want to test. | ||
The test UI opens within API Management.
Open the sidebar menu APIs and select My APIs. | ||

Now switch back to the Designer and click the Open Test API icon again. The test UI opens. Now you can do the following:
| ||
Expand the REST operation to see the necessary parameters. To start testing, enter the required data and click the Execute button. | ||
Scroll down to check the test responses. |
For services that have been deployed to a container, you have also access to the test UI.
When the service has been deployed successfully, use icon Open Administration in the Controls panel. This will open the service details page in the PAS Administration.
| ||
On this page, open tab Details. | ||
Scroll down to tab Endpoints. For each endpoint, you can now use the corresponding icon in section Test. | ||
A click on the test icon will open the Swagger UI within your PAS Administration. |
