Debunkum Beaver Pega How-to Guide by Debunkum Beaver Pdf

Why Create a Pega How-to Guide? With the Debunkum Beaver Pega How-to Guide series, you would have an arsenal of tools at your disposal. Whenever there is a new project, or a new feature required, all you have to do is just to pull out one of these guides. Can you visualise a situation, where all similar features have the same way of implementation, with the same sequence of steps and number of rules; and anyone who looked at the rules knew exactly how and why each rule was implemented as such; any deviations and bugs that were introduced due to carelessness would simply stand out by itself, easily identifiable and easy to fix, wouldn't this be a wonderful Pega World? Well, that is the core objective of the Debunkum Beaver Pega How-to Guide series! Introduction to Debunkum Beaver Pega How-to Guide: Creating REST Service and REST Connector (Master Beaver Version) REST stands for “Representational State Transfer”, it is a software architectural style that defines a set of constraints to be used for creating Web services. In this How-to Guide, the author demonstrates how to use Pega to create REST service as well as REST connector. REST/JSON is gaining traction, both for its ease of implementation as well as for its ease of consumption. With Pega, it is now so much easier to implement both REST service and REST connector. If you want to learn advanced knowledge of REST and/or are considering taking CLSA, then you should get the Master Beaver Version, in which additional tips and tricks of using Pega are discussed, including: security, removing the "pxObjClass" in the REST response, using external tool such as Postman, and many more!
