Re: [EXTERNAL] Re: Mixing sql and service program in IWS...

Thanks Nadir. That answered my question.

It seems like I have two options.

Option A: If I choose *not* to give each procedure a unique "URI path template for method," then I need to make sure that each procedure uses a different "HTTP request method." Only one procedure receives a GET request. Only one procedure receives a POST request, and so forth. The max number of procedures would be four (i.e., the number of drop down options for the "HTTP request method" box).

Option B: If I choose to give each procedure a unique "URI path template for method," then I can have each of the procedures use whatever "HTTP request method" that I want to assign them. I might have three procedures that all receive GET requests as long as each of the three procedures has a unique "URI path template for method" assigned. The max number of procedures is limited by considerations other than the number of drop down options for the "HTTP request method" box.

This is useful to know. There may be situations where I may not have a choice of which option to use. Good to know I can do both.

Thanks,

Kelly, that is a user beware scenario. The server will just choose one.
