Operations

By default a set of obsolete operations exists (for backwards combability from embedded connector or early versions of this connector service). Those operations are not listed below and they can be disabled per configuration. You can disable any operation for a given configuration. You might for instance only want to allow read operations, no write nor delete. You can configure this in the connector service's web UI.
