1.5 Prerequisites/Preconditions

This protocol operates against a resource in a workbook that is identified by a URL that is known by protocol clients. The URL is formed by appending the workbook relative path and the resource location to "http://<ServerName>/_vti_bin/ExcelRest.aspx", for example: http://www.example.com/_vti_bin/ExcelRest.aspx/Docs/Documents/sampleWorkbook.xlsx/model/Charts('SampleChart'). It is a prerequisite that the client obtain a URL to the server before these extensions can be used.
