Prior to setting up the environment, you need to follow these steps:
-
Install a web-based REST client application of your choosing.
In this tutorial, we have used Postman, a free third-party web-based REST client application used to test and explore RESTful APIs. We are not responsible for changes made to the Postman software that may affect the interaction of Postman with our software.
-
If using Postman, import the environment and the request collection supplied with this tutorial. These are available as sample JSON files in a zip file that you can download from the SEL JSON files link. After downloading, extract the contents of this zip file, which are as follows:
-
A sample environment file: TrainingEnvSEL.postman_environment.json
-
A collection of requests: Demo SEL WebAPI.postman_collection.json
