When you develop applications using Microsoft® SQL Data Services (SDS), both SOAP and REST interfaces are supported. The operations that use the service include the following:
-
Creating authorities
-
Creating and deleting containers
-
Creating, updating, and deleting entities
Examples of using the SOAP and REST interfaces are provided in the following topics:
Examples of Using SOAP Interface with the SQL Data Services
Examples of Using REST Interface with the SQL Data Services
Most of the examples use the simple concept of storing book information. The examples create appropriate authorities, containers and store book entities.

SDS supports application/x-ssds+xml content type for storing all Flexible Entities (all entities except blob entities). When you specify queries in the browser, the browser needs to be aware of this content type. For additional information, see Guidelines and Limitations.

The service also supports storing blobs. For more information, Handling Blobs.
