Actually, that does exactly the same thing.

routeRequestHandler.addRoute(new ERXRoute(NotificationType.ENTITY_NAME, "/NotificationType/{name:String}/fetchByName", ERXRoute.Method.Get, NotificationTypeController.class, "fetchByName"));

Try that instead:

requestHandler.addRoute(new ERXRoute(NotificationType.ENTITY_NAME, "/NotificationType/fetchByName/{name:String}", ERXRoute.Method.Get, UsersController.class, "fetchByName"));

And reverse the last two parts of your GET request:

/cgi-bin/WebObjects/myApp.woa/ra/NotificationType/fetchByName/alert

still results in:

Mar 30 13:55:12 myApp[9001] ERROR er.rest.routes.ERXRouteController - Request failed: /cgi-bin/WebObjects/myApp.woa/ra/NotificationType/alert/fetchByName.json

Apparently there might be something wrong in my setup, but I am at a loss.

Yes, I should have remembered that about query parameters I suppose. Though it's been a while.

I would still prefer doing it via REST, because that is what they asked me to provide as an interface. However, as I just found out no one here actually knows anything about REST my motivation is waning.

So, for those keeping score, I do now know how to pass in the string as a variable, but currently, with this action method:

public WOActionResults fetchByNameAction() {
String typeName = routeObjectForKey("name");
NotificationType type = NotificationType.fetchNotificationType(editingContext(), NotificationType.TYPE_NAME.eq(typeName));
return response(type, showFilter());
}

Registered this way:

routeRequestHandler.addRoute(new ERXRoute(NotificationType.ENTITY_NAME, "/NotificationType/{name:String}", ERXRoute.Method.Get, NotificationTypeController.class, "fetchByName"));

I get this exception:

Mar 30 13:21:33 MyApp[9001] ERROR er.rest.routes.ERXRouteController - Request failed: /cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyApp.woa/ra/NotificationType/alert/fetchByName.json

If you want to call your URL like this, you have to rework your route to be like this:

new ERXRoute(NotificationType.ENTITY_NAME, "/NotificationType/{name:String}/fetchByName"
