oslc.select Parameter

The 'oslc.select' Query parameter specifies the properties of the Resources to be retrieved; it is similar to the SELECT clause of an SQL statement. This parameter must be appended to the base URI of the Query Capability in Enterprise Architect as:

<protocol>://<server>/<model_name>/oslc/am/qc/?oslc.select=<CSV of Resource Properties>

The syntax for the 'oslc.select' Query parameter (defined in BNF grammar and as specified in the OSLC Query Syntax Specification) is:

The Resource properties that can be selected are:

dcterms:title
dcterms:type
dcterms:identifier
dcterms:subject
dcterms:creator / dcterms:creator{foaf:name} / dcterms:creator{*}
dcterms:created
dcterms:modified
dcterms:description
ss:status
ss:complexity
ss:stereotype / ss:stereotype{*}
ss:phase
ss:version
ss:language
ss:parentresourceidentifier
ss:resourcetype
ss:features
ss:nestedresources
ss:linkedresources
