Re: [Geoserver-users] REST API creating of a composite layer "Layer Group"

[Peter Kovac]

Hi Alex,

from what I have learned how people usually work with REST API is that 
they do what they want on a small scale using the web GUI and then do a 
GET request using the XML format. The XML returned usually is in the 
exact format a PUT request needs.

So, make one small layer group, GET it via REST and use that as a 
template for your PUT requests.

Thanks Peter. Unfortunately, my UI created layer group doesn't show up
anywhere in the rest interface. Very odd
