The cloud application asks to make a REST API call

{  
      "version": "1.0",
      "id": "99B9BD8C-9E3E-406A-A7EE-33B88531C7D9",
      "type": "COMMAND",
      "subType": "REQUEST",
      "timeStamp": 1444856264,
      "payload": {  
            "uri": "/netbackup/config/servers/vmservers",
            "method": "POST",
            "headers": {  
                  "Content-Type": "application/vnd.netbackup+json;version=1.0"
                  "Authorization": "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1N"
            },
            "parameters": "{\"serverName\": \"vcenterServer1\",
            \"proxyServerName\": \"\",\"vmType\": \"VMWARE_VIRTUAL_
            CENTER_SERVER\",\"userId\": \"administrator\",
            \"password\": \"password@123\",\"port\": 0 }"
      }
}

Notes: The request and its response should always have the same value for "id".

The "type" field is "COMMAND" and the "subType" field is "REQUEST". The "payload" "method" is "POST", which adds the vcenterServer1 information into NetBackup.

The "parameters" field is a JSON-escaped string: the double quotes around each value (such as "serverName") are escaped with a backslash (\).

{ 
      "version": "1.0",
      "id": "9CD2B89F-0BBF-4F60-974D-C1F3EF39B872",
      "type": "COMMAND",
      "subType": "REQUEST",
      "timeStamp": 1444806222,
      "payload": {
            "uri": "/netbackup/config/servers/vmservers/vCenter2
            .domain.com",
            "method": "GET",
            "headers": {
                  "Content-Type": "application/vnd.netbackup+json;version=1.0"
                  "Authorization": "eyJ0eXAiOiJKV1QiLCJhbGciOiJSUzI1N"
            }
      }
}

Notes: The "type" field is "COMMAND" and the "subType" field is "REQUEST". The "payload" "method" is "GET", which reads information about vCenter2.domain.com that is stored in NetBackup.

            8443/config/servers/vmservers/vCenter2.domain.com\"}]}"
      }
}

Notes:

The "payload" contains the HTTP response ("headers", "response code", and "body") that NetBackup received from the API.
