With DataFlex you can create RESTful web services as well as consume those web services.

Client side

Consuming REST services was made a lot easier since DataFlex 19.0 when it added native JSON support.

Consume a REST service: See cJsonHttpTransfer and JSON Parsing and Transfer

Server side

Creating REST web services has been made easy since DataFlex 19.1 with the introduction of the cWebHttpHandler handler.

You can create a REST service with earlier DataFlex versions, see here for how-to do so in DataFlex 19.0, but it is probably better to use DataFlex 19.1 in that case.
