    The following sections show the name and attributes of each descriptor for repositry resources used by the v2/resources service.

    Common Attributes

    All resource types contain the following attributes. Of these common attributes, only the label and description fields are writable.

    In general, writable fields are ones that can be set by the client when sending a descriptor for a write or update operation (PUT or POST). The other fields are read-only fields that the server sets automatically.

    application/repository.{resourceType}+json

    application/repository.{resourceType}+xml

    {    "uri" :"/sample/resource/uri",     "label":"Sample Label",     "description":"Sample Description",     "permissionMask":"0",    "creationDate": "2013-07-04T12:18:47",    "updateDate": "2013-07-04T12:18:47",     "version":"0"    ... }[/code]                    
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes"?><{resourceType}>    <uri>/sample/resource/uri</uri>    <label>Sample Label</label>    <description>Sample Description        </description>    <permissionMask>0</permissionMask>    <creationDate>2013-07-04T12:18:47        </creationDate>    <updateDate>2013-07-04T12:18:47        </updateDate>    <version>0</version>    ...</{resourceType}>[/code]                    

    Throughout the rest of the resource type sections, the common attributes are included in every descriptor as {commonAttributes}.

    Folder

    Folder types do not contain any additional fields beyond the common attributes shown above.

    application/repository.folder+json

    application/repository.folder+xml

    {    "uri" :"{resourceUri}",     "label":"Sample Label",     "description":"Sample Description",     "permissionMask":"0",    "creationDate": "2013-07-04T12:18:47",    "updateDate": "2013-07-04T12:18:47",     "version":"0" }[/code]                    
    <folder>    <uri>/sample/resource/uri</uri>    <label>Sample Label</label>    <description>Sample Description      </description>    <permissionMask>0</permissionMask>    <creationDate>2013-07-04T12:18:47      </creationDate>    <updateDate>2013-07-04T12:18:47       </updateDate>    <version>0</version></folder>[/code]                    

    Only the label and description fields are writable.

    JDBC Data Source

    application/repository.jdbcDataSource+json

    application/repository.jdbcDataSource+xml

    {    {commonAttributes},     "driverClass":"{driverClass}",     "password":"{password}",     "username":"{username}",     "connectionUrl":"{connectionUrl}",    "timezone":"{timezone}"}[/code]

    AWS Data Source

    application/repository.awsDataSource+json

    application/repository.awsDataSource+xml

    {    {commonAttributes},     "driverClass":"{driverClass}",     "password":"{password}",     "username":"{username}",     "connectionUrl":"{connectionUrl}",    "timezone":"{timezone}",    "accessKey":"{accessKey}",     "secretKey":"{secretKey}",     "roleArn":"{roleArn}",     "region":"{region}",     "dbName":"{dbName}",     "dbInstanceIdentifier":"{dbInstanceIdentifier}",     "dbService":"{dbService}"}[/code]

    Virtual Data Source

    The id of each subDataSource must be unique. The server does not prevent duplicates, and the last one to be defined silently overwrites the previous definition.

    application/repository.virtualDataSource+json

    application/repository.virtualDataSource+xml

    {    {commonAttributes},     "subDataSources":[         {             "id":"{subDataSourceId}",             "uri":"{subDataSourceUri}"         },         ...    ] }[/code]                    
    <virtualDataSource>    {commonAttributes}    <subDataSources>        <subDataSource>            <id>{subDataSourceId}</id>            <uri>{subDataSourceUri}</uri>        </subDataSource>        ...    </subDataSources></virtualDataSource>[/code]                    

    Custom Data Source

    The value of the serviceClass attribute is read-only and depends on the specific type of the custom data source, as defined in the server's applicationContext configuration files.

    application/repository.customDataSource+json

    application/repository.customDataSource+xml

    {    {commonAttributes},     "serviceClass":"{serviceClass}",       "dataSourceName":"{dataSourceName}",     "properties":[         {            "key":"{key}",            "value":"{value}"        },         ...    ] }[/code]                    
    <customDataSource>    {commonAttributes}    <serviceClass>        {serviceClass}    </serviceClass>    <dataSourceName>        {dataSourceName}    </dataSourceName>    <properties>        <property>            <key>{key}</key>            <value>{value}</value>        </property>        ...    </properties></customDataSource>[/code]                    

    Bean Data Source

    application/repository.beanDataSource+json

    application/repository.beanDataSource+xml

    {    {commonAttributes},     "beanName":"{beanName}",     "beanMethod":"{beanMethod}"}[/code]                    
    <beanDataSource>    {commonAttributes}    <beanName>{beanName}<beanName>    <beanMethod>{beanMethod}</beanMethod></beanDataSource>[/code]                    

    XML/A Connection

    application/repository.xmlaConnection+json

    application/repository.xmlaConnection+xml

    {    {commonAttributes},     "url":"{xmlaServiceUrl}",     "xmlaDataSource":"{xmlaDataSource}",     "catalog":"{catalog}",     "username":"{username}",     "password":"{password}"}[/code]                    
    <xmlaConnection>    {commonAttributes}    <url>{xmlaServiceUrl}</url>    <xmlaDataSource>        {xmlaDataSource}    </xmlaDataSource>    <catalog>{catalog}</catalog>    <username>{username}</username>    <password>{password}</password></xmlaConnection>[/code]                    

    Datatypes

    application/repository.dataType+json

    application/repository.dataType+xml

    {    {commonAttributes},     "type":"text|number|date|dateTime|time",     "pattern":"{pattern}",     "maxValue":"{maxValue}",     "strictMax":"true|false",     "minValue":"{minValue}",     "strictMin":"true|false"       "maxLength":"{maxLengthInteger}"}[/code]                    
    <dataType>    {commonAttributes}    <type>text|number|date|dateTime|time</type>    <pattern>{pattern}</pattern>    <maxValue>{maxValue}</maxValue>    <strictMax>true|false</strictMax>    <minValue>{minValue}</minValue>    <strictMin>true|false</strictMin>    <maxLength>{maxLengthInteger}</maxLength></dataType>[/code]                    

    List of Values

    application/repository.listOfValues+json

    application/repository.listOfValues+xml

    {    {commonAttributes},     "items":[        {            "label":"{label}",            "value":"{value}"        },        ...    ]}[/code]                    
    <listOfValues>    {commonAttributes}    <items>        <item>            <label>{label}</label>            <value>{value}</value>        </item>        ...    </items></listOfValues>[/code]                    

    Query

    The dataSource field of the query is nullable. Set an empty dataSource field when you want to remove a local datasource, either a reference or a local definition. When the data source of a query is not defined, the query uses the data source of its parent, for example its JRXML report (reportUnit).

    application/repository.query+json

    application/repository.query+xml

    {    {commonAttributes},     "value":"{query}",     "language":"{language}",    "dataSource":{        "dataSourceReference": {            "uri":"{dataSourceUri}"        }    } }[/code]                    
    <query>    {commonAttributes}    <value>{query}</value>     <language>{language}</language>    <dataSourceReference>        <uri>{dataSourceUri}</uri>    </dataSourceReference></query>[/code]                    

    Input Control

    Input controls come in several types that require different fields. The following table shows all possible fields, not all of which are mutually compatible.

    application/repository.inputControl+json

    application/repository.inputControl+xml

    {    {commonAttributes},     "mandatory":"{true|false}",      "readOnly":"{true|false}",      "visible":"{true|false}",      "type":"{inputControlTypeByteValue}",    "usedFields":"{field1;field2;...}",    "dataType": {        "dataTypeReference": {            "uri": "{dataTypeResourceUri}"        }    },      "listOfValues": {        "listOfValuesReference": {            "uri": "listOfValuesResourceUri"        }    }      "visibleColumns":["column1", "colum2", ...],      "valueColumn":"{valueColumn}",      "query": {        "queryReference": {            "uri": "{queryResourceUri}"        }    }}[/code]                    
    <inputControl>    {commonAttributes}    <mandatory>true|false</mandatory>    <readOnly>true|false</readOnly>    <visible>true|false</visible>    <type>{inputControlTypeByteValue}</type>    <usedFields>{field1;field2;...}</usedFields>    <dataTypeReference>        <uri>{dataTypeResourceUri}</uri>    </dataTypeReference>    <listOfValuesReference>        <uri>{listOfValuesResourceUri}</uri>    </listOfValuesReference>    <queryReference>        <uri>{queryResourceUri}</uri>    </queryReference>    <visibleColumns>        <column>{column1}</column>        <column>{column2}</column>        <column>...</column>    </visibleColumns>    <valueColumn>{valueColumn}</valueColumn></inputControl>[/code]                    

    The following list shows the numerical code and meaning for the {inputControlTypeByteValue}. The input control type determines the other fields that are required. The list of required fields may appear in a field named usedFields, separated by semi-colons (;).

    File

    The repository.file+<format> descriptor is used to identify the file type. The content field is used only when uploading a file resource as base-64 encoded content. For other ways to upload file contents, see Uploading File Resources. The content field is absent when requesting a file resource descriptor. For more information, see Downloading File Resources.

    Report Unit (JRXML Report)

    A report unit contains mostly references to the files that make up a report within the server. A report unit is a composite resource that may contain other local resources. In this case, the URIs that it references include a URI in the following format:

    <reportUnitURI>_files/<localResourceID>

    For example, the main JRXML of a sample report is referenced as follows:

    /reports/samples/Cascading_multi_select_report_files/Cascading_multi_select_report

    For more information, see V2 Resource Descriptor Types.

    Domain Topic

    A Domain Topic is a Topic created by selecting database fields from a Domain. It is structurally equivalent to a JRXML report, and thus it has the same type attributes (see Report Unit (JRXML Report)). The only difference is that the data source field will reference a Domain (semanticLayerDataSource).

    Other Types

    The following types are defined in commercial editions of the server and appear in the repository. However, they are meant only to describe the corresponding resources as read-only objects in the repository. The REST API does not support services for clients to create or modify these types.

    The types in the following table contain only the Common Attributes.
