Heri, In addition to the post by Aayush, the point answer to your question is yes. You can trigger a process in Appian from an external service either via WS call (A process in Appianc an be exposed as a WS) OR via JMS. Be reminded that you do need Appian credentials in order to initiate the WS call.

For #2, you can use synchronous WS in order to do what this bit. But once again, you need to consider the benefits of this approach and what feature of Appian you are utilizing and what you are not.

I hope this helps.

#1: I do this to trigger many of my applications. I use a 3rd party site (wufoo.com) that hosts the forms. It will send an email notification to the Appian mailbox which triggers a process to the connect to the 3rd party and pull in the form content via xml. I probably made it sound much worse than it is, it's really easy once you get the hang of it though.

Hi, thank all for all of your suggestion. I'll try to work on this.

Another method is to have an Appian process run a query to the DB where the web data is stored (if possible due to network settings), every however often, and start a new instance (sub process) of the data-checker whenever new entries are detected.
