Where paging parameters are applied, Aspire will add a "count" to the returned object to inform the total number of objects that exists 


Responses

Aspire's API will return both an HTTP response code and a Json body indicating success or failure of all calls. The following status codes are used

Status

Response codeDescription
200

Success

Success with errors (batch mode)*

201Created
400Bad request
404Not found
406Not acceptable

* batch requests (those calls capable of creating, updating, deleting or controlling more than a single item/object at a time - update multiple connectors for example) will return a status of 200 for the call itself and other status inside the Json body.


Response Body

Where an API call causes a single item to be successful created or updated, the body of the response will contain the item itself. The response shown below is an example of the body returned if a single connector was created or updated (response status 200 or 201)

Where multiple items/objects to be affected, an array will be returned in place of an object. The response shown below is an example of the body returned if two connectors were created or updated (response status 200)

Should multiple items/objects to be affected and some (or all) result in errors, information about any unsuccessful call will be included in an error section for the response. The response shown below is an example of the body returned if four connectors submitted for update and two encountered and error (response status 200)
