From the ABL Applications tab, you can manage REST services in your web applications by performing the following tasks:
  • Deploy services
  • Undeploy services

Deploy services

To deploy a service in an existing web application:

  1. In the OpenEdge Command Center console, click the ABL Applications tab.

    The ABL Applications page is displayed.

  2. On the ABL Applications page, select an ABL application.

    The web applications and services deployed in the selected ABL application are displayed in the Web Applications and Services pane.

  3. In the Web Applications pane, select the web application where you want to deploy a service.
  4. In the Services pane, click Deploy Service.

    The Deploy Service dialog box is displayed.

  5. In the Select service file field, click Select .paar, browse to the location of the service file (.paar), and select the file.
    Note: You can upload a PAAR file only if its size is less than or equal to 523,239,424 bytes (499 MB). If you want to upload a larger file, update the system-config.json file by adding the maxFileUploadSize parameter with appropriate value and restart the OpenEdge Command Center server. The maximum value you can set is 3,221,225,472 bytes (3 GB). For more information, see OpenEdge Command Center server configuration.
  6. In the Service name field, type a name for the service.
    Note: The name is automatically detected from the service (.paar) file and is displayed, by default. You can change the service name as desired.
  7. Click Deploy.

    A message is displayed confirming that the request to deploy the service is submitted.

  8. Optional. Check notifications to view the status of service deployment.
  9. After the service is deployed, it appears in the Services pane. If the associated web application or ABL application is stopped, you must start it to view the deployed service.

Undeploy services

To undeploy a service:

  1. In the Services pane, locate the card of the service you want to undeploy.
  2. In the service card, click Undeploy.

    The Undeploy Service box is displayed.

  3. Click Undeploy.

    A message is displayed confirming that the request to undeploy a service is submitted.

  4. Optional. Check notifications to confirm if the service was undeployed successfully.
