Outbound Integrations from IFS¶
IFS business logic can consume third-party web services using Outbound and Outbound Request REST APIs. In Outbound requests, the logic waits until a result is returned from the third-party web service. Outbound requests just post the data and continue with the rest of the business logic.
Outbound requests are initiated from the database.
-
Invoked via database using Plsqlap_Server_API package
-
IFS Connect framework will invoke the Message Router to find the routing rule and resolve destination address.
-
Depending on the routing address the relevant transformation will be done and the message will be sent outside the Connect framework using a Connect Sender.
-
If synchronous, the result will be returned to the “message_body_” parameter of the Plsqlap_Server_API.Invoke_Outbound_Message method.
