Globus Connect Server Manager API

The Globus Connect Server Manager API provides interfaces for configuring a GCS endpoint and managing storage gateways, user credentials, and collections.

The GCS API follows the REST design model, with resources representing storage gateways and their policies, user credentials, and collections.

All operations return a variation of the Result data type, defines the base message and response code, extended with operation-specific response data.
