Issue/Introduction

obtain complete listing of available APIs for tcServer and whether or not each allows guest access

Resolution

tcServer does not expose distinct programmatic API for direct interaction with its core functionalities.

tc Server provides a CLI (command-line tool e.g tcserver script) intended for administrators to manage/configure service instances. These tools and templates allow for automation and customization of server behavior, including setting up SSL, clustering, and resource configurations (like JDBC datasources).
 
tcServer is built on Tomcat which is an open source web server and servlet container.

So no API listing available.

tcServer has a CLI. Following is a list.
