Restful webservices - how to integrate

4

I am facing REST webservices to be integrated. What would you advise in order to integrate these REST webservices ? For instance: Is some sort of configurable component available instead of using a java action? The java action is already described within the forum

There is currently no out-of-the-box or Appstore module available for this.

You could download and change the Deeplink module to execute certain actions instead of opening forms.

It can be done with a little help from community commons.

You can use the community commons storeURLToFileDocument to call the REST webservice. The answer is stored in a filedocument. After that call StringFromFile to read the answer in a string. Or import that XML document with an 'import XML' action.

Be careful: the constructed url with parameters must be url-safe. Java is needed for that.
