Is this api calm?

I am trying to wrap my head in creating a calm api that reads, creates, updates and deletes several records at a time. I came across SugarCRM "restful" api and the examples they provide.

I do not know what in their example is considered calm about their api. All api requests are post 'via cURL. Retrieving records uses cURL post (shouldn't I use get ?).

Is their api considered calm? And if so, how?

The current SugarCRM REST API in 6.5 is definitely not RESTful, it is more based on RPC. The new one coming in the coming months will be more RESTful.

See Wikipedia for a better guide here ...
