getHref

public URI getHref()

Contains the URI to the entity.

An object reference, expressed in URL format. Because this URL includes the object identifier portion of the id attribute value, it uniquely identifies the object, persists for the life of the object, and is never reused. The value of the href attribute is a reference to a view of the object, and can be used to access a representation of the object that is valid in a particular context. Although URLs have a well-known syntax and a well-understood interpretation, a api should treat each href as an opaque string. The rules that govern how the server constructs href strings might change in future releases.

Returns:

an opaque reference and should never be parsed

getName

public String getName()

Contains the name of the the entity.

The object type, specified as a MIME content type, of the object that the link references. This attribute is present only for links to objects. It is not present for links to actions.

getType

public String getType()

Contains the type of the the entity.

The object type, specified as a MIME content type, of the object that the link references. This attribute is present only for links to objects. It is not present for links to actions.
