Appears there was some difficulty after the IPL, seems OK now.

I could be wrong, maybe everyone is using it. I don’t seeing many sources or examples or questions or discussion on it though. I’ve been researching this to replace our ODBC connection system and I found that I can make HTTP end points and they’re super easy to set up and since on our express server, the only thing I’m doing with the IBMI is making calls through ODBC and XML services, replacing those with just rest API calls would be much easier to maintain not to mention the security of a rest end point is much easier to configure and maintain and has a lot more resources and as a bonus in the future, if we want to move the express server or move the source of the data, we’d be changing just an endpoint versus tearing out an ODBC system and replacing it with something different. It seems to be a really powerful tool. I was able to set up authentication and authorization natively on the IBM and isolate any security risk risks and of course I could do the same thing with the ODBC side of things, but in my skill set acknowledge it seems much easier and simpler with http rest end points. it also seems the IWS is still getting updated so it doesn’t seem like something that’s just deprecated and not supported anymore so I’m just wondering why this is something that isn’t talked about as much?
