VNF-API, is something that is a bit of an older version, and still works for 
Alacarte.

GR API is its replacement or version 2.

Macro/Alacarte is fully supported on GR API.  You can use it just like you do 
VNF API Alacarte, or utilize the Macro features.  It is really up to you.  The 
API request to SO is the same for GR-API/VNF-API.  I believe the preload to 
sdnc(if using preload) differs some.  SO also has some rollback/retry 
mechanisms in GR-API that come pre-configured, you may wish to tweak these for 
your own use cases. 

Vnf-API had some very basic Macro functions, but is not a fully 
supported/fleshed out feature.  It is mostly used as Alacarte.  We have been 
focusing development on the GR-API path.  I would not expect the VNF-API path 
to receive many new features.

Thanks

    Hello
    
    We are still confused by those Alacarte/Macro modes and by VNF-API/GR-API
    
    Is there a relation ? 
    
    I know that it is possible to instantiate a service with the 
Alacarte/VNF-API combination
    
    Is it possible (and a good way of doing)  to use Alacarte/GR-API ?
    
    Macro+VNF-API ? possible ?
    
    Macro+GR-API ? necessary ?
    
    Thanks in advance
    
    René
