Call Rest API from Custom Menu in IEE

Hi @jhooperyan,

You can achieve this by setting the Custom Menu Action Type to "PL/SQL Block" and writing some PL/SQL code to invoke the following method,

Plsql_Rest_Sender_API.Call_Rest_EndPoint

Check the following f1doc link with a sample code,
Configure the REST Transport Connector

You might might need to check the below article on how to convert the above link to your customer specific f1doc URL,
How to access wit.ifsworld or docs.ifs links on this site

There are two ways you can accomplish this. You can use an Event tied to an Event Action in UP8. Event Actions allow you to configure REST calls. Custom Menus do not. Therefore, you can also use the standard API directly in a custom menu using a PLSQL block. The script would look a little something like this:

declare

url_ Varchar2(500) := 'YOUR URL HERE';

text_ Varchar2(200) := 'YOUR JSON PAYLOAD HERE';

content_ Varchar2(30000);

rest_sender_ Varchar2(2000) := 'REST_SENDER1';

end_point_ Varchar2(32000) := 'YOUR ENDPOINT HERE';

auth_method_ varchar2(2000) := 'Basic';

http_method_ Varchar2(50) := 'POST';

query_params_ Varchar2(32000);

header_params_ Varchar2(32000);

login_info_ Varchar2(32000) := 'Authorization=Basic YOUR BASE64 ENCODED KEY HERE';

rest_message_ clob;

url_params_ varchar2(32000);

blob_info_ Varchar2(32000);

Begin

rest_message_ :=  '{ "text": "'|| text_ || '"}';

command_sys.Send_Rest_Message (

            rest_message_ ,

            end_point_     ,

            auth_method_   ,

            login_info_    ,

            rest_sender_   ,

            header_params_ ,

            url_params_    ,

            http_method_   ,

            blob_info_     ,

            query_params_  );

end;
