Service REST make path param optional
Hi!!
I have the following concern regarding Service REST for v8.3. I am trying to use just one endpoint to be reusable for different methods: POST, PATCH, … in order to maintain just one service rule.
As a requirement, for POST method it is not required any parameter. However for the rest of the methods it is.
I am using as path param the caseID. So the issue is that if I create an endpoint like this:
https://hostname/ServicePackageName/v1/case/{caseID}
POST method is not working if I do the request without the path parameter, for example: https://hostname/ServicePackageName/v1/case
because I can see that caseID path parameter is required, is it possible to make this path param NOT required?
Note: to be compliant with client requirements it is not possible to use query parameters.

Hi,
The below 2 OOTB Service Rest API available (Record ->Integration Service -> Service Rest), I hope You can make use of that.

Hi!
Thanks for your reply.
But I cannot use OOTB APIs because they are not accomplishing client requirements. All APIs should be customized. So that's why my concern about how to make the path param optional.
Thanks,
Elena
