Hi Eduard, thanks for your quick answer. Using the REST resource works fine, thanks a lot.
For future work I have one question left. I read the tutorial for creating an own component, but it is not clear to me how to use an component as a service, so that an external application can access it. e.g. that I would have an own url for this new component, like for the REST API. So I would be able to call an url like xwiki/myApi instead of xwiki/rest or xwiki/xmlrpc/confluence. Is it possible to create something like this?
