Modify the non-secure Alfabet configuration (not recommended)

You can still activate and configure the Alfabet RESTful API version 1, but SAG ARIS GmbH does not recommend that, because version 1 is not secure and is outdated.

Alfabet RESTful API version 1 is available for objects of the Application system type type by default. You can map objects to Alfabet objects of the Application table. If you want to define other ARIS object types or tables, you must create additional <object>…</object> entries or change the table value. Use the Mapping definition as a guide for entering the attribute types.

Warning

For security reasons, it is recommended that you use the Alfabet RESTful API version 2.
