Without losing flexiblity, I can see couple of ways 1) retrieving same information via POST (then the parameters will be inside the www-form , instead of URI ), but we'll deviate from REST best practice. 2) Introduce a separate resource, where one can create groups of features for later reuse : GET /feature_list/{id} can return /feature/1 /feature/2 etc POST /feature_list will accept uri-list or RDF and will create new group of features PUT /feature_list/{id} will update the list DELETE will delete the list then the dataset URI might be reduced to http://ambit.uni-plovdiv.bg:8080/ambit2/dataset/37?feature_uris[]=/feature_list/mylist_of_selected_features (there is no restriction that feature_uris[] contains a single feature, any number will do) > Second, isn't the first part of the URI sufficient?
