How to Request a PDF Summary Using a Webhook

Introduction

When working with proof-based workflows, you often need to retrieve a PDF summary of a proof automatically. The Request PDF Summary module makes this easy. All it needs is a Proof ID and a Callback URL.

 What You'll Need

1.  The Proof ID of the proof you want to summarize.

2.  A Callback URL — the destination URL where the PDF summary will be delivered.

3.  A custom webhook set up to receive the response.

 

What Is a Callback URL?

The callback URL is simply the URL where the PDF summary of the proof will be sent once it's ready. Think of it as a return address you tell the system where to deliver the result, and it sends the summary there automatically.

 

Step 1 — Set Up Your Webhook

Create a custom webhook to receive the PDF summary. 

Step 2 — Configure the Module

Open the Request PDF Summary module in your scenario. Enter the Proof ID and paste in your webhook's URL as the Callback URL. 

 


Step 3 — Run and Capture the Result

Trigger the module. Within moments, your webhook will receive the PDF summary. You can then parse it, store it, forward it, or plug it into the next step of your scenario.

 


 

✅  That's it!

The webhook received the PDF summary. You can now capture it and use it anywhere in your scenario workflow.

REST API Calls with Query Parameters in BizTalk: A Step-by-Step Guide

Image
 Introduction In this blog, I will provide a comprehensive guide on how to call a REST API that requires query parameters. We'll walk through the necessary steps to set up the environment and make successful API calls. Solution High Level Steps 1. API Overview: We will be using an open API for demonstration purposes. The API endpoint we'll be working with is: https://randomuser.me/api/?results=1 2. Schema Creation: Create a schema named "SourceA" that matches the structure of the messages you'll be dropping in the receive location. To create a JSON response schema, follow these steps: capture the JSON response by running a test in Postman, and then utilize a JSON schema generator to create the desired JSON schema. 3. Field Promotion: In the SourceA schema, promote the field called "results." This field will serve as the variable for the query parameter. 4. Receive JSON Pipeline: Develop a receive JSON pipeline that can receive JSON messages and convert t...

Updating BizTalk SSO DB using BTDF and a simple BTDF deployment

Image
Introduction In some cases, it becomes important to securely store key-value pairs, such as configuration data (e.g., usernames and passwords), rather than hardcoding them within a BizTalk orchestration. One effective way to achieve this is by storing these key-value pairs securely in the BizTalk SSO (Enterprise Single Sign-On) database and subsequently reading these values within our orchestration through a simple line of code within a BizTalk expression shape. In this blog post, we will go through the steps to add key-value pairs to the SSO database using the BizTalk Deployment Framework (BTDF). We will also explore how to read these values within a BizTalk orchestration and perform a simple BizTalk deployment using BTDF. Steps Creating a BizTalk Solution, Schema Project and Map project: Let's first create a BizTalk Solution called "SSOPOC" and a project called "SSOPOC.Schema". For this, you need to go to Visual Studio and click on File --> New Project --...
