Class ValidValuesRESTServices


  • public class ValidValuesRESTServices
    extends Object
    ValidValuesAssetOwner provides the API operations to create and maintain lists of valid value definitions grouped into a valid value set. Both valid value definitions and valid value sets have the same attributes and so inherit from ValidValue where all of the attributes are defined. A set is just grouping of valid values. Valid value definitions and set can be nested many times in other valid value sets.
