Integration Task: Web Service
With the Web Service task type, you can configure processes to post data to a web service as a SOAP message or to a parameterized query string, allowing Integrify to push data to other systems.
The result of the post can determine the path of a workflow. At any point in an Integrify process, customers can:
-
Push or pull data to and from external systems (Remedy, Salesforce, SAP, etc)
-
Instantly (or on a scheduled bases) confirm data receipt and pass back additional information
-
Spawn additional tasks in the Integrify® process based on successful data transfer
Select Configure Task and you will be presented with the following to configure the Web Service task:
