REST protocol [Python/Jython API]
As you may know, I am developing a Python/Jython
API<https://github.com/RichardProsser/python-openmeetings> for
OM but it seems from the Soap/Rest
API<http://openmeetings.apache.org/SoapRestAPI.html> that
all of the calls are of the GET variety, even when they make changes
(updates) at the server end.
Is that correct - and is this really a valid REST protocol?
Thanks ...
Richard

OK, it is called REST, but uses only GET requests :)

Maxim,
Thanks for the quick response. It's just that my understanding of REST
requires a PUT/POST operation when updating records.
Cheers,
Richard

You are correct all calls are GETs
I see no issues with it
It works as expected in variety of PHP plugins
