Introduction to Debunkum Beaver Pega How-to Guide: Creating REST Service and REST Connector (How-to Version)
In this How-to Guide, the author adopted a practical approach to show readers how to use Pega to create REST service and REST connector in a way that avoids Pega OOTB limitations to improve reliability, flexibility and extensibility.
REST/JSON is gaining traction, both for its ease of implementation as well as for its ease of consumption. With Pega, it is now so much easier to implement both REST service and REST connector.
If you want to learn advanced knowledge of REST and/or are considering taking CLSA, then you should get the Master Beaver Version, in which additional tips and tricks of using Pega are discussed, including: security, removing the "pxObjClass" in the REST response, using external tool such as Postman, and many more!
Why Create a Pega How-to Guide?
In a real-world situation, you would not have the luxury of time to learn and explore features on the ground. Worst, after implemented the required feature, only to find yourself in a dead corner and had to resort to patching and custom coding to address users' ever-changing requirements. All these would have been easily avoided if you had a better understanding of the pros and cons of various options.
"Debunkum Beaver Pega How-to Guide" series aims to provide readers with an arsenal of tools at their disposal. Whenever there is a new project, or a required new feature, all is required is just to pull out these guides, implement the features according to the given approach.
"Can you visualise a situation, where all similar features have the same way of implementation, with the same sequence of steps and number of rules; and anyone who looked at the rules knew exactly how and why each rule was implemented as such; any deviations and bugs that were introduced due to carelessness would simply stand out by itself, easily identifiable and easy to fix, wouldn't this be a wonderful Pega World?
Well, that is the core objective of the Debunkum Beaver Pega How-to Guide series!
