Thanks Mike,
My UI needs to be able to edit/delete/insert rules authored, and rules
authored in my UI won't also be edited in Guvnor by users, user will
interact and do all modification and creation through my UI but we are
planning to author our users using Guvnor. Thats why I confused in which
asset type format should I store rules regarding to authentication issue.
Apart from this, I followed the documentation and succeed put and get a DRL
via REST, but could not manage to create and delete a DRL via REST API , if
you have some useful link or sample code for it I would appreciate.
Thanks in advance,
Bengi.
