Module, Template, and Handlers in Oracle APEX RESTful Services

Описание: In this video, you will explore RESTful Data Services in Oracle APEX, which offer a powerful and flexible solution for allowing external clients access to your data.

REST stands for representational state transfer and it's basically an architecture that allows two computers to talk to each other using HTTP. most of the time the data is transferred back and forth between those two systems using JSON format.

REST communicates over HTTP therefore it uses the standard HTTP methods. A GET looks up information from the service so that's equivalent to the select SQL command. PUT modifies the data so that's an update. A POST creates new data, so that's an insert and the delete method is used to remove data.

Here, you will learn how to configure a RESTful service by creating module, template, and multiple handlers to expose the department table to an external apex instance for performing DML operations.
