What is XML parameter for OSLC queries?

 Try adding this Accept:application/xml in heder if you are using a REST client .


See http://open-services.net/bin/view/Main/CmRestApiV1?sortcol=table;up=#Media_Types_Used

Edit: What is the content of the html? is it about login? then you might need to login

Did not work. The parameter was ignored.

Hi, Mike

In my test with RTC 4.0.4, I simply run via Firefox, it will still return XML instead of HTML.


What version of RTC do you use and what browser did you try? I remember that I did see the same issue before in Poster when login is not done properly(somehow I have to login to the server via browser first and then run the same commands in Posters.
The headers can be set to
Accept=application/xml
OSLC-Core-Version=2.0
in Poster (or other REST Client) to GET the XML response.

I need it in IE, which is defaulting to HTML. I am looking for a "?" parameter to add to the above URLs.
