Importing a WADL

WADL (Web Application Description Language) is OpenAPI’s XML ancestor, still present in a good many legacy Java services.

File ▸ Import (Ctrl+I) then the .wadl file.

WADL elementWhat Restorm makes of it
<resources base>The environment’s base URL
<resource path>A folder (recursively)
<method name id>An HTTP request
<param style="query">A query parameter
<param style="template">A path parameter
<param style="header">A header
<grammars> with an inline XSDSimple models in the API documentation

Unlike the WSDL import, WADL is parsed by a genuine XML parser with validation, not by regular expressions.
