Tower uses a standard REST API, rooted at /api/
on the server. The API is versioned for compatibility reasons, and currently api/v2/
is the latest available version. You can see information about what API versions are available by querying /api/
.
/api/v1/
has been discontinued as of Ansible Tower version 3.6. Refer to previous versions of the api for details on v1.
You may have to specify the content/type on POST or PUT requests accordingly.
PUT: Update a specific resource (by an identifier) or a collection of resources. PUT can also be used to create a specific resource if the resource identifier is know before-hand.
POST: Create a new resource. Also acts as a catch-all verb for operations that do not fit into the other categories.
All URIs not ending with "/"
receive a 301 redirect.
Note
Formatting of extra_vars attached to Job Template records is preserved. YAML is returned as YAML with formatting and comments preserved, and JSON is returned as JSON.
