before_routing

Overview

The before_routing hook executes when the v10+ REST Service is about to route the request.

Definition

function before_routing($event, $arguments){}

Arguments

Name	Type	Description
event	String	The name of the logic hook event
arguments	Array	Additional information related to the event
arguments.api	Object	The RestService Object
arguments.request	Object	The RestResponse Object

Considerations

This is a global logic hook where the logic hook reference must be placed in ./custom/modules/logic_hooks.php.
This hook can change request object parameters that influence routing.
This hook should not be used for any type of display output.
