Activities

You can call these services using the following URL:

http://<server>:<port>/XMII/Illuminator?service=<service name>&mode=<mode name>&content-type=<value>

service=<service name> is the name of the service, such as Admin.
mode=<mode name> defines the operation of the service.
For example, the Admin service has a UserList mode that returns the list of all users configured for the server. You can return the list of modes for a service by running the service with ModeList as the mode.

content-Type=<value> defines how the data is returned.

The following table lists the content types:

Content Type Values	Return Format
`raw/binary`	Legacy LISA format previously used by the applets
`text/xml`	Illuminator XML format
`text/html`	XML and transformed into an HTML document
`text/csv`	CSV output with a separator based on the user locale
`raw/xmii`	Binary protocol used by the applets and the SAP MII Workbench
`text/json`	Returns the response in JSON format Note It can be used only with those services that returns data in standard MII format. End of the note.

You can return a custom response by specifying the FinalTransform property. The final transform can be an XSL file or a Java class.

Example

To run a scheduler job by ID, you enter the following URL:

http://<server>:<port>/XMII/Illuminator?service=Scheduler&mode=Run&ID=<jobid>
