Here is a working code snippet showing how to use Aris (Enterprise Version 10SR19 ) Rest API.
I had to perform numerous searchs to make it work, I guess this may be useful to others.
Note
- the user runnnig the script must have Aris Api license rigths
- the script is written in Microsoft Powershell V5 . Invoke-RestMethod is similar to curl + Json handling
