The resource element acts as a container and is the source of specific information. Each
resource is referenced with a global identifier. The Resource component is used to define resource-related parameters. The resource parameters are shared by all the sub resources and methods under this resource. One or more
resources can be added to a RESTful web service.
See Guidelines for Creating and Editing a RESTful Web Service for more details about rules applied to a
resource element.
The Configuration tab contains the following fields as shown in
