Can I call outside REST API(web service) in Activiti's service Task

[ashay]

Hi,

I have requirement to create one business process which contains lots of task which require to call REST API(this is my own API).
Can we do any code in delegate(service task) for call any web service?


If there are other solution,please suggest me?

Hi Ashay,

You can always create a service task that performs REST calls.
It's just a Java class, so everything you want to do with Java logic is possible.

Hi there, is there an example somewhere of creating a service task which performs REST calls?

Thank you

No, but any example online with HttpClient, Spring RestTemplate, etc. works just fine in a JavaDelegate, as long as you include the those libraries on your classpath.
