Resource Formats

Zafiro RESTful API allows one to specify the format in which the resources are answered. The default format is JSON so in this case you don't need to specify a format if the default is ok. You can specify the requested format appending ".<formatName>" (a dot followed by the format name) to the end of the method, i.e.

/rest1/entity/wells.json

Currently supported formats are:

Format	Append extension
JSON	json
HTML	html

Date and Time formats

To send and receive Dates and TimeStamps, the Zafiro REST API will adopt the ISO8601 standard in the following formats.

About timezones: Zafiro doesn't handle timezones, hence all times are UTC based (zero offset).

Name	Pattern	Example
Date	YYYY-MM-DD	2012-08-20
Timestamp	YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ss YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ	1997-07-16T19:20:30 1997-07-16T19:20:30Z
Time	hh:mm:ss hh:mm:ssZ	19:20:35 19:20:35Z

Reference:

YYYY = four-digit year
MM = two-digit month (01=January, etc.)
DD = two-digit day of month (01 through 31)
hh = two digits of hour (00 through 23) (am/pm NOT allowed)
mm = two digits of minute (00 through 59)
ss = two digits of second (00 through 59)
s = one or more digits representing a decimal fraction of a second
Z = All times are UTC based
