Web API incorporation in BP

[Sharang Phanse]

Hi, need a basic idea on how to go about the implementation of Web api through bp, searched yt but it was just basic add delete; need web api for automating a web application(ticketing platform), also the diff between consuming web service (WSDL) and consuming web api and when to use either of them.
Thanks

Web APIs and WSDLs are two different web service mechanisms in Blue Prism. WSDLs are related to SOAP web services whereas Web APIs are focused on RESTful web services.

To define a Web API you would typically look at the documentation for a REST-based interface and translate the various methods, parameters, headers, etc in the documentation into the Web API definition.

There is a Web API data sheet on the Blue Prism portal that discusses the various options within the Web API definition dialog.

Hi sharang,
Do you get any solution how to find details(like attributes/parameters) from a wsdl file using BP?
