This document describes the Management Plane's support for legacy REST API.
To allow a smooth transition from the current approach for working with external Applications, Compass provides legacy support for the REST API to connect and register Applications. Calls to the Director and Connector can be done using new GraphQL API or legacy REST API. Internally calls to the REST API are translated by the Gateway to the GraphQL format and forwarded to the desired component.
Following diagram shows the flow when dealing with calls to REST API that are translated by the Gateway and then forwarded to the desired component. This applies for the calls to the Connector and Director, so both pairing phase and registration phase are covered.
