Overview
The HTTP methods used in CPQ are GET, DELETE, PATCH, POST, and PUT. The building blocks of REST APIs, these methods define actions applied to REST resources using their URLs.
| HTTP Method | Description |
|---|---|
GET  |
Retrieve information about the specified resource. Refer to Manage Collections for parameters that can be used with multi-level resources. |
POST  |
Request to invoke an operation, create a resource instance, or modify the specified resource. |
DELETE  |
Request to delete the specified resource. |
PUT  |
Request to update the specified resource. Note: In v11 CPQ standardized REST APIs that use the PUT method to update CPQ resources.
|
PATCH  |
Request to modify the specified resource by importing new or modified attributes. |
Notes
Notes:
- Oracle recommends that you periodically review if your REST request requirements have changed. Also check with your service administrator if any capacity adjustments or other changes are required in your service configuration.
- Child resources usually inherit security privileges from their parent resource. Therefore, to use a method on a child resource, you may need to have access to use that method on the parent resource. However, there may be some child resources with different privilege requirements to access them.
- Create, read, update, and delete (CRUD) operations that can be performed on each exposed Oracle CPQ service resource may vary. See each individual resource page for a full list of available CRUD operations.
