oVirt REST API, Postman, and Swagger UI

oVirt REST API

oVirt engine natively supports management control over REST API. The following is some notes of my study about REST API itself and the details related to oVirt.

Examples of using Postman

Then the following are some examples where I used Postman as my REST client to test some functions of oVirt.

Examples of using Swagger UI
