Use API (Not own Bonita) in the Designer Form

Q&A
1

Hello everyone,

I created an external Api Rest to use it in the form of Bonita’s designer.
I know how to use Bonita’s own Api, but my question is …
In this case, how would the API that I created within Bonita (form) be used, this external API is to obtain read-only information.

Someone knows something about it?

Regards,

Victor

Hello,

Here is the technical documentation regarding the REST API Extension and here is the documentation from on administration perspective.

Basically when you have your REST API Extension developed, you can deploy it using the Resources menu from the Administrator perspective of the Portal, optionally edit the permissions from the Bonita configuration and request it from any client that is logged in via REST API.

From a form you need to provide the URL “…/API/extension/my_rest_api_extension” to request your REST API Extension instead of “…/API/default_rest_api_from_bonita” used to request default Bonita REST API.

HIH,

I have made the API call through a javascript script. Thanks for your reply, regards.
