I’m trying to understand how to construct URIs for RESTful web services. Assume I had a dating site, would the following be correct:

  • domain.com/profiles/ <– list of profiles
  • domain.com/profiles/123/ <– profile number 123
  • domain.com/profiles/123/likes/ <– list of profile 123’s likes
  • domain.com/profiles/123/likes/2/ <– 2nd item in the list of profile 123’s likes

Am I close or did I get this totally wrong?
