WebService Connector Modifying Context URL on Account Updates

Hello

I am hoping to get some samples on how to modify the context url when updating an account on an endpoint with the webservices-connector.

I need to pass an id on the linked account to the end point so the end point knows which account to update.

/api/Employee/$theId

I am a little stuck getting started on this one. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Assuming the ID is the native ID in your application, you can use the token $plan.nativeIdentity$.

The documentation for the connector includes a bunch of other examples of tokens you can use. It’s one of the better-done connector docs.

Thanks Devin

I am pretty sure I figured out how to get the id from the identity’s link. I am struggling with how to make the call with that id in the url so the right account gets updated on the end point.

I have been looking at the attached doc but don’t see any examples. Is there another one?

It might be something like this?

String contextUrl = application.getAttributeValue("genericWebServiceBaseUrl");
 	String contextUrlId = contextUrl + myId;
       response = client.executePost(contextUrlId, data, headers);

Hi @ralfonse

You can try using the WebServiceBeforeOperationRule. You can use the below snippet to add the id to the endpoint.

  String fullUrl = requestEndPoint.getFullUrl() + myId;
  requestEndPoint.setFullUrl(fullUrl);

The myId referred is the id you obtained from the link.
