Import Action

Import Action

Imports an action in a given category. The action binary content should be available as multi-part content (see RFC-2387 for details).

Details of working with multi-part resources depend on the used client's HTTP/REST library. For example, in Spring it will look like:

Sample client code:
-------------------
String url = "https://localhost:8281/vco/api/actions/";
MultiValueMap parts = new LinkedMultiValueMap();
Resource r = new FileSystemResource("D:/path/to/some.action");
parts.put("file", Arrays.asList(r));
parts.put("categoryName", "com.vmware.basic");
new RestTemplate().postForLocation(url, parts);
