To answer the question, then: if you browse to http://localhost:8080/restful/services/toDoItems/actions/newToDo you'll see that in the "parameters" map (for num=1) the "choices" array lists the available values. Internally, this corresponds to the ActionParameterChoicesFacet (there's also a PropertyChoicesFacet) in the metamodel. I like to test these things using the "Rest Console" extension for Chrome (there are many other similar extensions). So, if you specify the target url of: http://localhost:8080/restful/services/toDoItems/actions/newToDo/invoke and a body of: { "description": "Test", "category": "Professional", "dueBy": null, "cost": null } and submit as a POST, then the new object should be created.
