Connect REST calling activity

A REST connector is called by an activity with the Activity type set to Connect that applies to a class derived from the Work- base class. Such activities can be referenced in an Integrator shape in a flow rule.

To start a REST connection and execute a Connect REST connector rule, create an activity that:

  • Creates a named page for the class that the connector rule applies to. This page becomes the primary page for the connector.
  • Sets property values and input parameter values that serve as the input for the connector's message sent to the external application.
  • Calls the connector rule. This step uses the Connect-REST method. The step page is the primary page of the connector.
  • Processes the reply message that the connector rule receives.
