Why Oracle Rest Service returns 404 Not Found?

Question

I have Apex 21 & ORDS installed.

Apex works properly.

I have the following RESTful service module :

Whever I access the module url, I'm getting the error 404 Not Found.

ORDS is enabled for the schema.

Does anyone know why the module is not working please ?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Whenever I access the module url

Nothing is configured in ORDS to provide a response at the module level, only the TEMPLATE level, and that only if you have a HANDLER defined for the method being used.

You can go to your API, or you can go to the description (OpenAPI Catalog) of the APIs in your module.

• Good: GET http://example.com/ords/myschema/test/1
• Bad: GET http://example.com/ords/myschema/test
• Good: GET http://example.com/ords/open-api-catalog/myschema/test/

Also for anyone else reading this, you can use APEX with ORDS, but you don't HAVE to use APEX with ORDS.

ORDS also has a native IDE for developing REST APIs, as shown in my screenshot. You can read more about this here.
