Hi Patrick & Anne, We'd welcome contributions to the existing DSpace 5.x/6.x REST API documentation. I agree it's a bit lacking, but thus far I've not been able to find someone to help enhance it with sample curl requests, etc. If you are interested, please do get in touch and I'll gladly give you rights to update the official documentation in these areas.
You also may be interested to hear that with the upcoming DSpace 7 release we are completely rebuilding the REST API, and starting with a REST Contract (to completely document how each endpoint will respond, with examples, etc). That work is ongoing (not yet complete), but you can take an early look at the REST Contract at https://github.com/DSpace/Rest7Contract - Tim On Tue, Nov 21, 2017 at 8:34 AM alaw <[email protected]> wrote: > I second the request to make the REST API documentation for DSpace 5 and 6 > more complete and explicit.
