  title: Oracle Siebel REST Metadata API
  description: RESTful API for accessing Siebel CRM business objects, business services, and repository objects. The Siebel REST API supports standard CRUD operations using HTTP verbs (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE) against business object data resources, business service invocation, and workspace-based repository management. Responses are available in JSON or XML format, and the API provides built-in metadata discovery through describe endpoints that return OpenAPI-compatible specifications.
