We till use the older version of Nintex workflow. 

 

How can I use this web request action in the workflow to make a Post request? My API consists of a client id and secret, I believe we need to create an access token first and then make a connection. 

 

Any ideas how do achieve this? 

 

 

 

Hi,

I have worked with API’s that require a new access token with each request.

To do this in a workflow you firstly have to make a web service call to the api that issues the tokens.

The tokens are normally returned in an XML string.  You then use a query XML action to extract the token into a variable.

The token variable is then used in the header of a second web service call to do what you need to do with the web service / api.
