Postman is an API(application programming interface) development tool provided by third party that helps to test APIs. Almost any functionality that could be needed by any developer is encapsulated in this tool. It has the ability to make various types of HTTP requests(GET, PUT, POST, DELETE).
Postman tool is another example of how to use TelcoBridges RESTful Northbound Interface.
The application tool can be run from any computer having access to the management web interface.
When sending HTTP requests to Telcobridges management interface for manipulating with Telcobridges configurations' resources, the HTTP request must be following the HTTP headers as listed above.
Out of these headers, besides Host information and Authorization, Content-Type is important, and must be specified as "application/json" in order to return right result
Other headers are either already complying or optional, and becoming less important when using default headers values as provided by Postman
Include the authorization with "Basic Auth",
Get the configuration collection list and display the JSON returned in the body of the HTTP response.
Modify attributes of an element. Below example renames the route element named "Test_Codec" to "Test_Codec1".
With the authorization and header set like GET
Specify the route name that will have name changed, in this case, "Test_Codec"
Go to "Body" tab, click "raw", and select "JSON"
Copy the new name parameter as {"name":"Test_Codec1"}
Press Send, and will receive 200OK
Create a new element. Below example add a new route named "xtel_to_SBC_1".
With the authorization and header set like GET
Specify the route name to be added, in this case, "xtel_to_SBC_1"
Go to "Body" tab, click "raw", and select "JSON"
Copy the new name parameter as {"name":"xtel_to_SBC_1","nap" : "Test_Codec","remapped_nap" : "NAP_SS7_7443"}
Press Send, and will receive 200OK
Delete an element. Below example delete the route named "xtel_to_SBC_1".
Activate a configuration. Below example is to put (thus activate configuration) for the configuration named "Config_test_CDR".
system name, in this case, is "support_lab_tmg3200"
