The brokers Web Management Console makes calls to an underlying REST API to manage the broker. This section provides a brief overview of the REST interface, which can be used directly to monitor and manage the Broker instance although it is still evolving toward being fully considered a seperately supported interface. The brokers REST interface support traditional REST model which uses the GET method requests to retrieve the information about broker configured objects, DELETE method requests to delete the configured object, PUT to create or update the configured object and POST to perform the configured objects updates not available with the PUT requests. The table below lists the available REST services with brief description how they can be used.

It is permitted to replace rest URL elements with an "asterisks" in GET requests to denote all object of a particular type. Additionally, trailing object type in the URL hierarchy can be omitted. In this case GET request will return all of the object underneath of the current object. For example, for binding URL http://localhost:8080/rest/binding/<vhost>/<exchange>/<queue>/<binding> replacing of <exchange> with "asterisks" (http://localhost:8080/rest/binding/<vhost>/*/<queue>/<binding>) will result in the GET response containing the list of bindings for all of the exchanges in the virtual host having the given name and given queue. If <binding> and <queue> are omitted in binding REST URL (http://localhost:8080/rest/binding/<vhostname>/<exchangename>) the GET request will result in returning all bindings for all queues for the given exchange in the virtual host. / #create a durable priority queue curl --user admin -X PUT -d '{"durable":true,"type":"priority"}' http://localhost:8080/rest/queue// ]]> /// ]]> NOTE: These curl examples utilise unsecure HTTP transport. To use the examples it is first necessary enable Basic authentication for HTTP within the HTTP Management Configuration (it is off by default). For details see
