Rewrite (HTTP) Write Response

When a webservice creates or updates data it typically replies with the updated record. The response can be in either Binary or Textual (JSON) formats.

Response rewriting supports three different modes:

  • Sequential Rewrite Write Response
    • The webservice response is textual and in the order of the data in which it was written. The response will be parsed in order and written back to the IMan dataset in order.
  • Keyed Rewrite Write Response
    • This is similar to the sequential method, but has additional configuration to enable responses from a webservice to be consumed where the response is not in the same order as it was written.
  • Binary Data Response
    • When a webservice responds to an operation with a binary type format (such as a shipping label) or PDF report. The binary response can be ingested by IMan and used in transforms such as email.
