APS Types

This reference guide provides the full information about APS types that allow using the built-in platform services and build a resource model of an APS application.

In this document:

Overview

The guide contains the following documents:

  • Type Definition discloses the APS type structure and provides detailed data about all components, including general data, implementation of other types, properties, composite structures, operations, and privileges. It is necessary to know that information to build custom APS types implementing Absctract Types and integrating APS application with the platform through the OSS Types.
  • Absctract Types contains reference data for every base APS type to be implemented by other APS types including the OSS Types and BSS Types.
  • OSS Types is a set of reference documents about specific APS types used by OSS to expose its services for integration with APS applications.
  • BSS Types is a set of reference documents about specific APS types used by BSS to expose its services for integration with APS applications.

Services

There are several built-in services exposed by the platform on the APS bus as singleton APS resources. Such a service is called on the APS bus using its alias as follows.

  • Get the APS resource representing a service:

    GET /aps/2/services/<alias>
    
  • Run a custom operation exposed by a service:

    POST /aps/2/services/<alias>/<operation>
    
    { /* JSON body */ }
    

OSS Services

This is a list of APS types that define the API of OSS services.

BSS Services

This is a list of APS types that define the API of BSS services.

General Services

The following services are used to manage resources in both systems, OSS and BSS.

Name APS ID Alias
InitWizardConfig http://odin.com/init-wizard/config/1.0 init-wizard

Collections

The platform data model contains many collections of resources, such as accounts, user, and subscriptions. Every collection is defined by an APS type and it has an alias that you can use to get all APS resources of the collection:

GET /aps/2/collections/<alias>

For example, to get a list of all accounts, send the following request:

GET /aps/2/collections/accounts
