I am using the modeler in explorer for my business modelling. Come across to have a web service task to implement web functionality. But no clue how to implement it. user guide has little info on the same. Anybody please post some steps here.
In my case I use Groovy tasks and the groovy-wslite library (https://github.com/jwagenleitner/groovy-wslite). Usually you will have to do some mapping anyway, so this solution works well for me.
As an aditional advice, think about routing all your calls through an ESB. This way you´ll have a single base address (say http://host/services) to configure in your BPM environment and can profit from all the extra stuff an ESB can offer, like message monitoring/logging, QoS, etc.
