 Greetings.

The doc for the IWS support...the integrated Rest API engine is updated
regularly,
- [1]https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/integrated-web-services-ibm-i-web-services-made-easy

Near the bottom of the page is a link to the Red book like doc that has
lots of details.

Additionally, there are a couple of youtube vides on this support that
could be helpful.

From the responses that I'm getting, I should have been a little

clearer in
my request.

I have been writing C#.Net REST services for a while and wanted to play
with
RPGLE. I already understand REST services, I just can't figure out how
to
configure the service on the IBM i. I am the type of developer that
needs a
working example so I can play with it and learn from it what I need to
do to
make it do what I want it to do. I have tried to go through the
configuration but nothing I have found matches up with the screens my
system
provides so I'm not sure what parts of the config are doing what and now
to
do the config. The IBM developer pages are from 2015 and aren't even
close
to the current version. I am running V7.3.

Are you looking to consume web service or provide them (sounds like the
latter).

Have you any CGI experience with RPG? There's not a lot of difference
if
you want to use RPG and Apache for it.

there is a better list.



I am trying to learn how to build a REST web service using RPGLE and
all I can find is outdated information on the sites that show how to
add / configure the site. Are there any websites with instructions
that are not from 2015?
