Howdies!
New to the Nintext forums. I searched around and did not find an immediately relevant answer, but perhaps my query could be refined...
Anyway, I am looking to use a Nintex form to post information via REST to different (non-sharepoint) site. Essentially, I would like to be able to integrate our helpdesk's software via a REST api call. We have the REST interaction accomplished in a powershell script, but I am wondering what the appropriate approach in Nintex Forms would be? (if any)
I am thinking that Web Request Control would be the place to start, with some custom javascript that assembled the JSON object to post via a button.
I would like to keep it simple, but maybe using workflow (to interact with the external service's REST API) once the information has been submitted to a SharePoint list would be the path as well.
Any thoughts or tutorials on how to interact a sharepoint form with an external REST api via Nintext?
