For all of the below endpoints, an an Accept header of  header of application/json must  must be present in the request.

Info

Before release 12.10, Blueriq expected the username and password to be in the request parameters of the login request (e.g. http://.../api/v2/login?username=testUser&password=secret). Since release 12.10, the username and password are retrieved from the login request body. For backwards compatibility the login information can still be retrieved from the request parameters as well.

The material theme sends the login information in the request body by default from release 12.10. It is possible to configure the theme to still use the legacy request parameter method of logging in, by configuring the backend module in your theme:

Code Block
languagejs
titleapp.module.ts
    V2BackendModule.forRoot({
      baseUrl: ....,
      legacyLoginWithQueryParams: true,
    }),


Response

204 No Content, if successful.

401 Unauthorized, if unsuccessful.

Interacting with a session 

After having started a session using one of the /api/v2/start endpoints, its initial page contents may be obtained via a POST to /api/v2/session/{sessionId}/load. The result of this call is the full page model, necessary for initial rendering of the page. Subsequently, events may be submitted to the runtime via a POST to /api/v2/session/{sessionId}/event, resulting in a response containing all changes (add, update, delete). In Blueriq each session may be part of a hierarchy of sessions. For example, in a DCM application, the session of a flow widget is a child session of the main dashboard session. An event in one session may cause changes in other sessions if Portal Messages are thrown. Therefore, the response  of /api/v2/session{sessionId}/event endpoint will contain changes in all sessions in the heirarchy. An example response containing the changes:


Code Block
languagexml
titleChange Events
{"events":[
	{"sessionId":"27390ee2-4968-4f27-ae71-3d6516ba06ec",
	 "changes": {
		"changes":[
			{"type":"add",
		 	"key":"P521-C0-F1",
		 	 "model":{
				"key":"P521-C0-F1",
				"name":"e.a2",
				"properties":{},
				"questionText":"q2",
				"explainText":null,
				"dataType":"boolean",
				"rejectedValue":null,
				"readonly":false,
				"required":false,
				"hasDomain":false,
				"multiValued":false,
				"refresh":false,
				"displayLength":-1,
				"domain":[],
				"messages":[],
				"values":[],
				"type":"field",
				"styles":[]
				}
			}
		]
	}
]}

In this example a

 

Code Block
languagexml
titleChange Events
{"events":[
	{"sessionId":"27390ee2-4968-4f27-ae71-3d6516ba06ec",
	 "changes": {
		"changes":[
			{"type":"add",
		 	"key":"P521-C0-F1",
		 	 "model":{
				"key":"P521-C0-F1",
				"name":"e.a2",
				"properties":{},
				"questionText":"q2",
				"explainText":null,
				"dataType":"boolean",
				"rejectedValue":null,
				"readonly":false,
				"required":false,
				"hasDomain":false,
				"multiValued":false,
				"refresh":false,
				"displayLength":-1,
				"domain":[],
				"messages":[],
				"values":[],
				"type":"field",
				"styles":[]
				}
			}
		]
	}
]}

In this example a field is added to the page. The available properties per element are listed in the REST Page Models V1.

Info
titleSerialization

The serialization of page element to datamodel is handled by the IApiRendererFactory, this renderer factory can be overridden to customize the serialization. In Java by use of the AquimaApiRendererFactory annotation.
