Oracle Fusion Supply Chain Management (SCM) supports REST APIs, allowing you to interact programmatically with its various modules.

REST (Representational State Transfer) APIs are often used to create, read, update, and delete data in systems like Oracle Fusion SCM. REST APIs are stateless, meaning each call is separate and can be made independently of others.

Here’s a generic process of how you might use these APIs:

1. Authentication: Before you can use the APIs, you’ll need to authenticate. This typically involves acquiring an access token by providing your Oracle Fusion SCM username, password, and potentially other details depending on the authentication method used by the API.

2. Request: After authenticating, you can start making requests. Each API has its own set of URLs (or “endpoints”) that you can interact with. You’ll usually make a GET request to retrieve data, a POST request to create data, a PATCH request to update data, and a DELETE request to remove data.

3. Response: After making a request, you’ll receive a response. The response contains the data you requested (for GET requests), confirmation that your operation was successful (for POST, PATCH, and DELETE requests), or an error message.
