   1. Copy the Token value for an Weblog instance or create such in not existing. For ex.: 150fd483a3219e09847676deebae6c725d5a0a03
   1. Go to http://demo.openlinksw.com/ods/oauth_test.vsp
   1. In the shown form enter for:
      1. *Server*: http://demo.openlinksw.com/ods/api
      1. *Consumer Key*: 150fd483a3219e09847676deebae6c725d5a0a03
      1. *API method*: weblog.post.new
      1. *API parameters*: inst_id=44&description=my test&title=my first post
         * An easy way to get the instance id is using the [[VirtuosoOdsUbiquity][ODS ubiquity commands]] sequence:
<verbatim>
ods-host http://demo.openlinksw.com/ods
ods-set-mode sid
ods-authenticate-user demo password demo
ods-get-instance-id demo's Weblog
</verbatim>
      1. Select for *Query options*: "Generate URI and Submit".
      * <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/ow1.png" style="wikiautogen"/>
   1. Click the "Execute" button.
   1. In the shown authorization form click the "Authorize" button.
      * <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/ow2.png" style="wikiautogen"/>
   1. As result will be shown the generated URI and the output message of executing the ODS REST API. In our case, the id of the new created post will be: 37
      * <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/ow3.png" style="wikiautogen"/>
   1. Now lets get the data for the created post. In the form enter:
      1. *API method*: weblog.get
      1. *API parameters*: post_id=37
      1. Select for *Query options*: "Generate URI and Submit".
   1. Click the "Execute" button.
   1. As result in the "Response Body" text-area will be shown the retrieved details for the posts with the given above id.
