Summary

Recommendation ITU-T X.786 establishes guidelines for implementation conformance statement (ICS) proformas for interface systems based on representational state transfer (REST). Recommendation ITU-T X.786 provides an overview and constructions for the open application programming interface (OpenAPI) specification (OAS), and provides several proformas (tables) for each OAS syntax component to be used in REST-based interfaces. Instructions on how to complete the columns in the conformance tables are also provided. Examples of REST-based interface ICSs are provided in appendices.
