Building a REST Lattice integration

Use this skill when the protocol choice is REST. The guidance here is intentionally language-light: keep the user's chosen language when possible, use the documented REST SDK for that language when available, and otherwise talk directly to the HTTP APIs.

When to choose REST

Prefer REST when the user wants:

• the fastest sandbox integration path,
• HTTP and JSON over generated protobuf stubs,
• manual testing with curl, Postman, or simple scripts,
• lower-rate polling or request/response workflows,
• or the Objects API.

If the integration must upload, download, or attach files, call out that Objects is a REST-only surface and either choose REST outright or propose a mixed REST + gRPC architecture.
