HI Carlos,

Not all tables are available to the REST API Explorer. Many tables that start with sys_ are forbidden because they may have performance or security impacts on the system. I don't have a specific reason why sys_atf_test_suite was omitted from the REST API Explorer search. I'll ask the developers and see what they say. Stay tuned...

In the mean time, you may still be able to test/use this table by using another table and then use the various script snippets and substitute in the right table name and args. Just because it's not in the pick list doesn't mean it's not available to access at all via the REST API.

Hi Carlos,

I got a message back from our developers. It turns out that, yes, sys_ tables are filtered out from the REST API Explorer automatically. yes, you can still use them if you like (outside the REST API Explorer), but be aware that the sys_atf table relationships (fields, references, meta data, etc) are a bit more complex than they appear and doing this via REST may not be such a good idea at this point.
