Issue/Introduction

We have been requested to display REST data in Introscope. It uses the JAX-RS standard, with CXF servicing it. Can this be done? If so, how?

Environment

APM 10.5  and later

Resolution

For APM, you may use the following two options:
1) Use the unsupported Marketplace JAX-RS extension
https://marketplace.ca.com/shop/ca/jax-rs.html --

2) Upgrade the cluster to APM 10.7 SP 1

Then point to the webservices.pbd
