+== REST Requestor IO
+
+APEX can act as REST requestor on the input as well as on the output interface.
+The media type is `application/json`, so this plugin does only work with the JSON Event protocol.
+
+=== REST Requestor Input
+
+APEX will connect to a given URL to request an input.

+----
+
+<1> the event name
+<2> a filter on the event
+<3> the mode of the requestor
+<4> a peer for the requestor
+<5> a general request timeout
