REST API
The Force.com REST API lets you integrate with Force.com applications using simple HTTP methods, in either XML or JSON formats, making this an ideal API for developing mobile applications or external clients. Force.com also supports Apex REST, which lets you create Web services on Force.com using Apex
Create REST Apex class
@RestResource(urlMapping='/api/Account/*')
global with sharing class MyFirstRestAPIClass
{
@HttpGet
global static Account doGet()
{
RestRequest req = RestContext.request;
RestResponse res = RestContext.response;
String AccNumber = req.requestURI.substring(req.requestURI.lastIndexOf('/')+1);
Account result = [SELECT Id, Name, Phone, Website FROM Account WHERE AccountNumber = :AccNumber ];
return result;
}
@HttpDelete
global static void doDelete()
{
RestRequest req = RestContext.request;
RestResponse res = RestContext.response;
String AccNumber = req.requestURI.substring(req.requestURI.lastIndexOf('/')+1);
Account result = [SELECT Id, Name, Phone, Website FROM Account WHERE AccountNumber = :AccNumber ];
delete result;
}
@HttpPost
global static String doPost(String name,String phone,String AccountNumber )
{
Account acc = new Account();
acc.name= name;
acc.phone=phone;
acc.AccountNumber =AccountNumber ;
insert acc;
return acc.id;
}
}
As you can see, the class is annotated with
@RestResource(urlMapping='/api/Account/*).
The base endpoint for Apex REST is
https://
instance.salesforce.com/services/apexrest/.
The URL mapping is appended to the base endpoint to form the endpoint for your REST service.
For example, in the class example, the REST endpoint is
https://instance.salesforce.com/services/apexrest/api/Account/.
Test Class for REST API
@IsTest
private class MyFirstRestAPIClassTest
{
static testMethod void testGetMethod()
{
Account acc = new Account();
acc.Name='Test';
acc.AccountNumber ='12345';
insert acc;
RestRequest request = new RestRequest();
request.requestUri ='/services/apexrest/api/Account/12345';
request.httpMethod = 'GET';
RestContext.request = request;
Account acct = MyFirstRestAPIClass.doGet();
System.assert(acct != null);
System.assertEquals('Test', acct.Name);
}
static testMethod void testPostMethod()
{
RestRequest request = new RestRequest();
request.requestUri ='/services/apexrest/api/Account/12345';
request.httpMethod = 'POST';
RestContext.request = request;
String strId = MyFirstRestAPIClass.doPost('Amit','2345678','12345');
System.assert(strId !=null );
}
static testMethod void testDeleteMethod()
{
Account acc = new Account();
acc.Name='Test';
acc.AccountNumber ='12345';
insert acc;
RestRequest request = new RestRequest();
request.requestUri ='/services/apexrest/api/Account/12345';
request.httpMethod = 'DELETE';
RestContext.request = request;
MyFirstRestAPIClass.doDelete();
List<Account> ListAcct = [SELECT Id FROM Account WHERE Id=:acc.id];
System.assert(ListAcct.size() ==0 );
}
}
Execute your Apex REST class in workbench
