Process Engine Rest Service

The Process Engine REST Service enables lightweight clients (typically, Javascript/Ajax-based applications) to access Process Engine resources over HTTP, using the HTTP query string format for both request and response data. JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) is used as the data-interchange format.

Client applications can use the Process Engine REST Service to perform the fundamental Process Engine operations, including launching and modifying workflows, updating participant roles, and retrieving information about participants and their assigned work items.

Installation
The Process Engine Client Installer deploys the Process Engine REST Service servlet in the IBM® FileNet® Workplace XT application container. No further installation is necessary.
Documentation
The Process Engine Development Help includes a section, Process Engine REST Service, that provides information on architecture and configuration, as well as API reference documentation for the Process Engine REST resources.
