True -- I wasn't primarily criticising the API design as such, merely noting that the term 'REST' has a fairly narrow definition. That said, as a separate point, I think the REST design paradigm is a good one, in the sense that it decomposes the problem in a way that I, for one, find useful. It does lead to longer URIs, yes, but that's surely a very minor inconvenience, if it's an inconvenience at all. Best wishes, Norman -- Norman Gray : https://nxg.me.uk
