Introduction

Web Services connector is used generally to trigger a scenario and pass parameters through a web service request.

Configuration

The first step to making a web service listener work is to create a client configuration.

• URI: refers to the alias of configuration
• active: a boolean value to enable or not the client configuration.
• asynchronous: whether you want to send the request synchronously (false) or asynchronously (true).

Uses

You can send HTTP requests using Postman. 

The input must take one of the 4 events: 

1. no params and no input. just a scenario triggers.
2. params passed via the URI, as RequestParams
3. file upload
4. send a body object in the request (XML, JSON...)

Each HTTP Method takes some or all events:

• GET : events 1 & 2.
• POST : events 1, 2, 3 & 4.
• PUT:  events 1, 2, 3 & 4.
• DELETE:  events 1 & 2.

Example

let's assume that we have a client configuration called 'HelloWorld', and try to send an event with the POST method.

the Scenario :  

and the listener : 

We will send an XML object to WSListener using Postman, in order to insert a simple Tracking.
