Integrating REST or SOAP Clients with Presto

Posted 01/18/2010 - 15:42 by MiMi Levine

In addition to the default JUMP protocol, applications can use two other protocols for requests to the Mashup Server – if the requests invoke specific types of services:

SOAP Web Services or Mashup Services can be invoked by clients using the SOAP protocol. In this architecture, the Mashup Server becomes the WSDL endpoint and then invokes the web service internally. See Republishing WSDLs to Enable SOAP Invocations to Presto for instructions on SOAP client access to WSDL services. See Enabling SOAP Clients to Invoke Mashups for instructions on SOAP client access to mashup services.

Excel, REST, RSS, or Mashup Services can be invoked with a REST protocol if all input parameters for the operation are a simple type. See Invoking Presto Services with a REST Protocol for instructions.
