Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Words and Phrases
| Search for | Example | Results |
|---|---|---|
| A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
|
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|
|
| Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
| Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Application Programming Interface
Cloud Service Automation (CSA) provides a REST (REpresentational State Transfer) Application Programming Interface (API) that allows application developers to interact programmatically with many of the capabilities that CSA offers in the Cloud Service Management Console and the Marketplace Portal.
CSA exposes subscription, service, and resource information through REST API calls. You can exercise all REST API calls programmatically and from an HTTP client. You'll find more information on HTTP clients in Retrieving information using REST calls.
The information is designed to help you learn about the APIs by introducing the CSA capabilities that can be accessed programmatically, how to access them, and walking through several examples. Assuming that you:
- Understand how to use a REST API.
- Have installed and set up CSA, following the instructions in the Install and the Configuration Overview sections.
