As a business rules developer or systems administrator, you can use KIE APIs to interact with KIE Servers, KIE containers, and business assets in Red Hat Process Automation Manager. You can use the KIE Server REST API and Java client API to interact with KIE containers and business assets (such as business rules, processes, and solvers), the Process Automation Manager controller REST API and Java client API to interact with KIE Server templates and instances, and the Knowledge Store REST API to interact with spaces and projects in Business Central.

REST API endpoints for KIE Server and the Process Automation Manager controller

The lists of REST API endpoints for KIE Server and the Process Automation Manager controller are published separately from this document and maintained dynamically to ensure that endpoint options and data are as current as possible. Use this document to understand what the KIE Server and Process Automation Manager controller REST APIs enable you to do and how to use them, and use the separately maintained lists of REST API endpoints for specific endpoint details.

  • Execution Server REST API on the jBPM Documentation page (static)
  • Swagger UI for the KIE Server REST API at http://SERVER:PORT/kie-server/docs (dynamic, requires running KIE Server)

Prerequisites

  • Red Hat Process Automation Manager is installed and running. For installation and startup options, see Planning a Red Hat Process Automation Manager installation.
  • You have access to Red Hat Process Automation Manager with the following user roles:

    • kie-server: For access to KIE Server API capabilities, and access to headless Process Automation Manager controller API capabilities without Business Central (if applicable)
    • rest-all: For access to Business Central API capabilities for the built-in Process Automation Manager controller and for the Business Central Knowledge Store
    • admin: For full administrative access to Red Hat Process Automation Manager

      Although these user roles are not all required for every KIE API, consider acquiring all of them to ensure that you can access any KIE API without disruption. For more information about user roles, see Planning a Red Hat Process Automation Manager installation.
