Performing Infrastructure Management functions using web services

TrueSight Infrastructure Management includes web services that perform operations such as retrieving data, creating events, and managing data for various Infrastructure Management features. These web services are based on Representational State Transfer (REST)-style architecture which uses HTTP or HTTPS to send requests and JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) standards to receive responses.

Web services are supported on the same platforms as the Infrastructure Management server. For information about the supported platforms, see System requirements and product compatibility for Infrastructure Management.
