RESTinTSM - a RESTful API for IBM TSM

General

Methods

  • POST to create new information
  • GET to read/retrieve information
  • PUT to update (existing) information
  • DELETE to delete (existing) information

Data formats

  • API input should be formatted as JSON.
  • API output is depending on content negotiation (Accept header).

Authentication

  • Plain HTTP Basic Authentication may be used for GET operations.

  • Use access key indentifier as username and secret access key as password.

Domains have a fully qualified domain name (e.g. 'example.com'), as well as a shorter domain tag (e.g. 'example') and a description. Each domain is assigned zero or more TSM servers.
