Identity Manager 8.1.4 - REST API Reference Guide

NOTE: This request type is able to run customizer or dialog methods for an entity. Note that currently only those methods are supported that do not return a value. The method name matching is processed for customizer methods first. If none are found, the system continues the matching using the dialog methods.

To call a method on an entity, use the URL <baseURL>/api/entity/{table}/{uid}/method/{methodName}
