eFTL Channel REST API

The eFTL channel REST API offers a lightweight alternative for publish and subscribe operations. You can use it to publish messages to a channel, to create durable subscribers on a channel, and to get messages from durable subscribers.

Send REST requests to the eFTL server at its listen port. The default listen port is 9191.

This API can access FTL channels and EMS channels.

With proper authorization, you can publish to any channel.

In contrast, you can subscribe only on channels configured for persistence. The reason is that client and server do not maintain a connection. It is as if every subscribe API request comes from a new client. The durable subscription paradigm provides continuity for this transient client model.
