The MicroProfile Rest Client specification provides a type-safe mechanism for invoking RESTful services.

You can use MicroProfile Config properties to provide configuration values for MicroProfile Rest Client. For more information, see MicroProfile Config Properties: Rest Client.
With the release of the MicroProfile REST Client 3.0 feature (mpRestClient-3.0), the underlying MicroProfile REST Client implementation for Open Liberty changes from Apache CXF to RESTEasy. This change results in certain API behavior changes that might require you to update your application code if you are updating your application from using MicroProfile REST Client 2.0 to using MicroProfile REST Client 3.0. For more information, see Differences between MicroProfile REST Client 3.0 and 2.0.
